This complete package contains four FORTRAN 77 programs for Markov Model based learning experiments. One program estimates the likelihood of a one-stage learning model, another program delivers these estimates for a two-stage learning model. The third program was designed for hypothesis testing the parameter differences between experimental conditions, whereas the fourth program may be used for hypothesis testing of parameter differences within a particular experimental condition.
