Psychological behaviorism

Psychological behaviorism is a way of thinking about behavior that involves looking at how an individual's environment affects their behavior. It suggests that our behavior is shaped by the things we experience in our lives, like rewards or punishments, and that we learn from our experiences. This means that when an individual does something, it is because of the situation they are in and the rewards or punishments that have come from that situation. For example, if a child is rewarded for cleaning their room, they may be more likely to clean it again in the future.
