- An emphasis on habit formation defined in terms of mechanisms of trial-and-error elaboration of response and conditioned stimulus substitution was probably the characteristic with which early behaviorism was most closely associated. Behaviorism in the 1920's was first, last, and always a psychology of habit formation.38] As Watson described it in 1919, ...the goal of psychological study is the ascertaining of such data and laws that, given the stimulus, psychology can predict what the responses will be; or, on the other hand, given the response, it can specify the nature of the effective stimulus.

Essay about Learning and Cognitive Perspectives in Psychology Two of the most known perspectives in psychology are the learning and the cognitive perspectives. The learning perspective is a psychological approach that reflects how the environment and how experience affects a person’s or animal’s actions. It emphasizes the importance of a unique experience in families, schools, and communities. Within this perspective, psychologist keeps their attention mainly on the environmental rewards and punishers that maintain or discourage certain behaviors. Behaviorists do not generally order the mind to explain behavior.

The most famous proponents of psychological behaviorism were John Watson and B. F. Skinner (1904 – 1990).adical behaviorism. In his 1938 book The Behavior of Organisms: An Experimental Analysis, psychologist B. F. Skinner (1904 – 1990) introduced radical behaviorism.

Skinner, like Watson, also recognized the role of internal mental events, and while he agreed such private events could not be used to explain behavior, he proposed they should be explained in the analysis of behavior.

There are variations in other factors that make the temp rule move one way or the other. A simple example is in muddy water crappie will go shallower and in clear water they will go deeper. There are many other to include brightness of the sun and even boat traffic. Even with all the variables general rules on temps are a good starting point.
