The dynamics of elaboration of simple classical and instrumental conditioned reflexes in snails, rats, cars, dogs and humans was investigated. The dependence between the number of correct responses (in percentages) and the number of reinforcements was significantly approximated with exponential equation including the coefficient describing the initial level of conditioning. Regression analysis gave the opportunity to compare the dynamics of conditioning in different animal species.
