about
Born in Vienna, Austria, in 1931, Francis Mechner came to the United States in 1944 after having spent three years in France and two years in Cuba. By age 19 he was an accomplished classical concert pianist, portrait painter, and USCF-rated chess master. In the mid 1980s he composed the soundtracks for the original versions of Karateka and Prince of Persia (video game) both developed by his son Jordan Mechner. Mechner is a research psychologist best known for having developed and introduced (in 1959) a formal symbolic language for the codification and notation of behavioral contingencies that he has applied to various fields including economics, education, environmental impact, business management, biology, clinical applications, law, and the analysis of macroeconomic and financial phenomena. Mechner is also known for a variety of contributions in instructional technology and in basic research on learning.
