Biography

• Cambridge University
  MA (1968)
• Cambridge University
  PhD (1972)

After graduating in 1968 stayed at Cambridge to do research in the Psychological Laboratory on animal discrimination learning (PhD, 1971). Then held research posts at the University of Sussex and Dalhousie University in Canada before coming to York in 1975, just a few months before the Psychology Department admitted its first undergraduates. My time at York has been varied by occasional visiting appointments at other universities in Australia and Canada.
