Answer: Behavioral Perspective

Explanation:Behaviorism is an approach which suggests that behavior is learned therefore objective investigation is crucial. This approach opposes taking people behavior as if they were born like that but it focuses on identifying and dealing with factors that lead to those behavior such as interaction with the environment. Behavior isn't inherited or innate but it is learned through classical conditioning and operant conditioning.
