Behavior Psychology

Behavior psychology, also known as behaviorism, is a field that studies how people's actions are influenced by their environment and experiences. It plays a role in understanding how we learn new behaviors, habits, and responses through interactions, rewards, and consequences. Essentially, it suggests that behavior is shaped by what happens around us and can be modified by changing those external factors. This approach is often used to help in therapy, education, and behavior modification, focusing on observable actions rather than unobservable thoughts or feelings.
