This volume is dedicated to Hayne W. Reese, with affection and with admiration for all that he has done for the discipline of psychology
Hayne W. Reese was appointed Centennial Professor of Psychology at West Virginia University in 1970 and held that position until his retirement in May, 2000. His distinguished chair was one of four established by the West Virginia legislature to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the University. Professor Reese received his B.A. and M.A. degrees in psychology from the University of Texas at Austin and his Ph.D. degree in psychology from the University of Iowa in 1958. Prior to coming to West Virginia, he served on the faculties of the State University of New york at Buffalo and the University of Kansas. His extensive editorial service includes a term as editor of the Journal of Experimental Child Psychology from 1983 to 1997, editor of Advances in Child Development and Behavior from 1969 to 2002, and positions on the editorial boards of 10 professional journals. Professor Reese is the author of more than 165 books, chapters, and scientific articles and more than 215 professional presentations in the areas of learning, developmental psychology, philosophical and theoretical psychology, and the history of psychology. He has, in addition, provided exceptional intellectual and academic leadership to both the Department of Psychology and the University throughout his many years of service to West Virginia University.
