AP PSYCHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Therefore, behaviorism is clearly a theory that has strict limitations in the sense that it completely ignores mental events, or hypothetical feelings and consciousness, which occur outside the confined world of behavior.

Detailed explanation-2: -Abstract. Three attitudes are distinguishable among behaviorists: (1) facts of conscious experience exist but are irrelevant to the problems of behavior (2) conscious facts exist but are not amenable to scientific treatment and (3) the supposedly unique facts of consciousness do not exist.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Behaviourist approach made a deliberate effort to be scientific, and therefore refused to discuss mental processes that might be involved in learning because they are not observable and could not be studied objectively.

Detailed explanation-4: -Psychological behaviorism is a research program within psychology. It purports to explain human and animal behavior in terms of external physical stimuli, responses, learning histories, and (for certain types of behavior) reinforcements.
