Radical behaviorism

Explanation:

Radical behavior is the school of thought that is developed by B. F Skinner that argues that behavior, rather than mental states should be the focus in psychology. Skinner's science of behavior emphasizes the importance of reinforcement and the relationship between stimuli and responses. Behavior doesn't depend on feeling, or we can say another internal process. They are the natural events that occur naturally in the environment. The consequences of the behavior that either increases the probability of that behavior in the future. For example, if Rita bites the nails, she does not like a conscious or unconscious decision to relieve the anxiety but because the behavior is rewarding for Rita in someway. Skinner's radical behaviorism shows the orderly relations between behavior and the environment.
