There are many theories and perspectives regarding human behavior. One such theory is the psychodynamic approach which deals with our internal mental state in terms of the development of human behavior. One of the perspectives is the social behavioral perspective which talks about the environmental influence on the development of human behavior. Some of these theories and perspectives influence the underlying belief of the earlier theory or shape the foundation of the later theory. While both have their positive aspects and can be helpful in assisting customers, they have some flaws that cannot be overlooked. Thyer explained, “Social work practice is often seen as centering on various theories about the etiology of psychosocial problems, various theories (Hutchison, 2011). It is a broad view of several theories on how human behavior develops through interactions with their environment. (Hutchinson, 2011) Environment has eight different compelling measurements. They are: the physical environment, culture, social structure and social foundations, dyads (connections between two individuals), families, small groups, formal associations, communities and social developments. (Hutchison, 2011) Some of the main ideas underlying the social behavior perspective are that all behaviors are not concrete. Just as behavior is learned and adapted, it can also be defined and changed. (Hutchison, 2011) It also proposes that all human problems can evolve into problematic behaviors. Finally, according to Hutchison (2011), “All human behavior is learned according to the same learning principles: association of environmental stimuli, reinforcement, imitation, expectations and personal meanings”. (pg.Watson and B.F. Skinner (Hutchison, 2011). Operant conditioning viewed behavior as a product of positive and negative reinforcement. Behavior is learned and performed more frequently through the rewards (positive reinforcement) it receives, or weakened from punishments. (negative reinforcements) which is a penalty of the behavior (Hutchison, 2011), according to Mae Sincero, the behavior could also be learned “… indirectly (through observational learning)” (Mae Sincero, 2012). imitation, vicarious learning, identification, copying, social facilitation, contagion, role play” (Bustamante, Howe-Tennant and Ramo, 2011). An example of operant conditioning is if every time the child cleans his room, his father gives him ice cream. The child will keep cleaning his room to keep getting ice cream doesn't clean his room he gets a spanking. This will result in the child starting to clean his room because he doesn't want to be spanked. An example of observational learning would be a young teenager getting her belly pierced because she saw all her friends getting their belly pierced
