I know people at the University of Waterloo entirely independant of this forum who could easily compare for you Chrissi's knowledge of the psychology department of that University with the reality of their psychology department if you seriously need that to happen. She's called your credentials into question, and your response was to flip out, instead of rationally respond. Saying "Ahaha, I tricked you and you didn't call me on it" doesn't mean you tricked her, it means she had the decency to not call you a liar to your face in public. She simply called your textbook evidence into question. (notice that attacking what you say instead of you is logically more sound) If you have such insurmountable proof in "several" of your textbooks, post some of the text, let us know exactly which books you're consulting.

Chrissi: Seriously...there are so many better ways to try and prove your point than the way you went about doing so. You guys were both right on the borderline of sufficient personal attacks to just close this thread entirely, and now you've both pretty much taken a step over that line. This was a perfectly reasonable and interesting discussion. If Dark Ronin is so misguided in his claims, demonstrate where he's wrong, post some text (with a citation) from some of your books that state contrary to what he does.

I hate to close a good thread just because some people are being too overzealous in claiming they're right, instead of simply -showing- that they are right.

It wasn’t that I tricked her. I really did make a mistake. I thought my teacher had studied under Pavlov, I got the names mixed up it was actually Skinner. And yeah I did flip out, but I’m trying to present facts and she is just overreacting. I want a good solid debate; she just wants to yell at people. I don’t see how every text book I have read could be wrong. But I will bring in my text book tomorrow, give a full citation and type it word for word. Who knows maybe I misinterpreted it, I just don’t see how I could be that far off. I don’t try to sound smart on here this is how I talk. I can’t accept some random person who says everyone in psychology is wrong about it because he or she says so.
