    All of the work described in this chapter was conducted at the University of Iowa in the laboratory of Edward A. Wasserman.  A number of collaborators contributed countless hours:  Suzette Astley, Joseph Gagliardi, and Brigette Cooke.  Most important, was the invaluable mentoring of Edward A. Wasserman during the duration of the research.  I would also like to extend special thanks to Irving Biederman for providing key theoretical concepts which gave direction to the development of the research designs. The research was supported by a grant from the National Institute of Mental Health, MH47313 to the University of Iowa.
