Gabriel has now learned that these goals are to describe, explain, predict, and control behavior.

Explanation:

The study of mind and behavior of a person is known as psychology. Describe, explain, predict and control are the four main goals of psychology.

Describe: The behavior of a person should be observed and described in detail minutely.

Explain: However the descriptions come from observable data, psychologists must go beyond the data and explain their observations.

Predict: We should be ready to predict what will happen in future.

Control: We should be ready to control the happenings, once we know what happens, why it happens and what will happen in the future.
