WHAT IS BEHAVIORISM mEthodological"behaviorism: Psychology is the science of behavior Psychology is not the science of mind x"Psychological" behaviorism: Behavior can be described and explained without making ultimate reference to mental events or to internal psychological processes. The sources of behavior are external (in the environment), not internal (in the mind, in the head) x"Analytical" behaviorism: In the course of theory development in psychology, if, somehow, mental terms or concepts are deployed in describing or explaining behavior, then either(a) these terms or concepts should be eliminated and replaced by behavioral terms or(b) they can and should be translated or paraphrased into behavioral concepts
WHAT IS BEHAVIORISM? “Methodological” behaviorism: Psychology is the science of behavior. Psychology is not the science of mind. “Psychological” behaviorism: Behavior can be described and explained without making ultimate reference to mental events or to internal psychological processes. The sources of behavior are external (in the environment), not internal (in the mind, in the head). “Analytical” behaviorism: In the course of theory development in psychology, if, somehow, mental terms or concepts are deployed in describing or explaining behavior, then either (a) these terms or concepts should be eliminated and replaced by behavioral terms or (b) they can and should be translated or paraphrased into behavioral concepts
METHODOLOGICAL BEHAVIORISM x Methodological behaviorism is a normative theory about the scientific conduct of psychology x What should psychology like to be? x It claims that psychology should concern itself with the behavior of organisms(human and nonhuman animals). Psychology should not concern itself with mental states or events or with constructing internal information processing accounts of behavior. According to methodological behaviorism, reference to mental states, such as an animal's beliefs or desires, adds nothing to what psychology can and should understand about the sources of behavior. Mental states are private entities which, given the necessary publicity of science, do not form proper objects of empirical study. Methodological behaviorism is a dominant theme in the writings of John Watson (1878-1958)

PSYCHOLOGICAL BEHAVIORISM x Psychological behaviorism is a research program within psychology x How can psychology be done? x It purports to explain human and animal behavior in terms of external physical stimuli, responses, learning histories, and (for certain types of behavior) reinforcements x Key Words:物理刺激,反应,学习历史,特定的行为强化 x Psychological behaviorism is present in the work of Ivan Pavlov(1849-1936), Edward Thorndike(1874-1949),as well as Watson. Its fullest and most influential expression is B. F Skinner's work on schedules of reinforcement

ANALYTICAL OR LOGICAL BEHAVIORISM WHAT DOES MENTALITY MEAN? x Analytical or logical behaviorism is a theory within philosophy about the meaning or semantics(语义学) of mental terms or concepts. It says that the very idea of a mental state or condition is the idea of a behavioral disposition or family of behavioral tendencies, evident in how a person behaves in one situation rather than another when we attribute a belief. for example, to someone, we are not saying that he or she is in a particular internal state or condition. Instead, we are characterizing the person in terms of what he or she might do in particular situations or environmental interactions. Analytical behaviorism may be found in the work of gilbert Ryle(1900 76) and the later work of Ludwig Wittgenstein(1889-51)(if perhaps not without controversy in interpretation, in Wittgenstein's case)
