Journ. Psych. Neurol., 30-31. - Leipzig, Verlag von Johann Ambrosius Barth, 1930, 8°, pp.46-48, 1 Abbildungen; 1931, pp.217-256, Abb., 2 orig. Broschur. First Edition! Beritoff has verified most of Pavlov's results, using the flexion reflex of dogs as the unconditioned reflex. In addition to the movements of the stimulated leg, he recorded those of the head and of one other leg, thus obtaining a somewhat better picture of what the animal was doing. The most important aspect of Beritoff s work is his attempt to explain the conditioned reflex on a modern physiological basis. As he points out, Pavlov's explanations are not in strict accord with present physiological theory. But Beritoff is himself quite careful in his explanations not to ignore the results of those physiologists who are attacking the problem of the action of the central nervous system by methods other than that of the conditioned reflex.
