The behavioral approach

Explanation:

Human behavior is learned. All behavior can be learned and unlearned. interaction with our environment, we learn new behavior and unlearned old behavior. This approach depends on human observable and measurable aspects of life. It is a continuous approach. This approach is used in different settings such as educational and clinical settings. Behavior assume that the real thing is only to observe and see the world. We see only how a person act reacts but never see the id ego personality of a person. We can see the body of a person rather than the mind. but through behavior, we make inferences about the brain and thinking process of a person. Behaviorists always interested in behavior rather than the mind. We can alter our behavior but not mind. the behavioral researcher does experiment to know the behavior of a person, why and how a person behaves in a specific manner.
