Carl D. Cheney

Carl D. Cheney is a professor emeritus of psychology at Utah State University and a coauthor of Behavior Analysis and Learning: A Biobehavioral Approach. Utah State lists him among its psychology emeritus faculty; the appointment does not imply that he currently teaches there.

The textbook’s author biography says Cheney taught behavior analysis and physiological psychology. It describes experimental work on predator–prey interactions, diet selection in livestock, and changes in reinforcement schedules. The seventh edition’s contents span conditioning, stimulus control, choice, applied behavior analysis, and the relationships among evolution, behavior, and culture.
