Behavioral Psychology

Behavioral Psychology

Behavioral psychology focuses on studying and modifying observable behaviors. It is based on the idea that behaviors are learned through interactions with the environment and can be changed. Various techniques, such as classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and behavior modification, are used to help individuals replace unhealthy habits with healthier ones. Behavioral psychology is often applied to changing undesirable behaviors like addiction, anxiety, phobias, and even improving personal performance. Unlike traditional therapies that focus on thoughts and emotions, behavioral psychology directly targets actions and responses, helping individuals establish positive habits.
