Answer 1

Answer: B. False

Explanation: Behavioral perspective, developed by John Watson and B. Skinner explains the process of learning and how behavior is formed. It draws a link between rewards and the response to these rewards. In essence, when we use a system that rewards wanted behavior and punishes unwanted behavior, we are putting the behavioral perspective into practice. It identifies the factors in the environment, also known as stimuli as the main contributor to observable behavior or the response in humans and animals .
