Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Behaviorism is a reaction to Freud's theories because the early behaviorists thought that Freud's theory was too subjective and untestable. In Freudian psychoanalysis, the therapist interprets the dreams and the free associations of the patient, and these are influenced by the subjective opinions of the therapist.
