Second graders were administered a two-choice discrimination task in which irrelevant dimensions were correlated .50, .75, or 1.00 with the 100 percent rewarded cue. Results indicate that learning was most impeded in the .75 condition and was most efficient in the 1.00 condition. These results support the Hypothesis Testing Theory of…

The author, a training director for a trucking firm, feels that training can and should be profit-oriented. Here he describes an application of the idea, which seems to have paid dividends. (Editor)
