Learned Helplessness at Fifty: Insights from Neuroscience
Learned helplessness, the failure to escape shock induced by uncontrollable aversive events, was discovered half a century ago. theorized that animals learned that outcomes were independent of their responses—that nothing they did mattered – ...
