Key principles that govern human and animal behavior
There are three categories of motivational theories: biological, psychosocial and
biopsychosocial. Human and animals display an extensive range of social systems, including
behavioral patterns and physical characteristic. The key principles include behavior mainly
rest on the immediate environment. The environment that a person lives in influences the
behavior of any living organism than any other factor. For example, in the setting of a
classroom, when scholars act out, the instructor gives special attention, as the new
environment, to repair the corrupt behavior.
One more principle contends that behavior is faded or distressed by reward and
consequences (Sumpter, 2006). People have an inclination of repetition of rewarded behaviors
while removing themselves from behaviors whose penalties come with drawback. This
principle describes the reason as to why scholars are rewarded for good acts. One more
principle holds that every single behavior is purposeful. Behaviors are not at all accidents for
very behavior has a purpose nonetheless of whether it is understood or not. The principles
governing human and animal behavior set the undeclared guidelines that form both the
behavior and the attitude of any individual. These principles knowingly impact the connections
between individuals and the society. The principles ensure that individual’s role in a method
suitable to civilization because individuals are forced to a given set of behavior. However, the
principles may vary from one social group to another related to nature and perspectives.
