I think it is important to consider worldview when studying developmental theories because. Everyone has a different worldview and each person resonates with a different developmental theory. Personally, myself I believe in God and that god created the earth for us to inhabit and populate. I believe in the Bible and everything that it says but my neighbor they may not believe in the same worldview as I do. I think that you must learn what your worldview is before you start looking into developmental theories or you’re not going understand what they all mean. You need to ask yourself what exactly you believe your worldview is and find that out about yourself.
Behaviorism
John B. Watson who was often thought to be the father of behaviorism. Behaviorism assumes a reader is essentially passive responding to stimuli. That learner starts off with a clean slate and then their behavior is shaped from positive reinforcement and negative reinforcement. Both reinforcements increase the probability that the specific behavior will or won’t happen again. (David, L paragraph 2) There are two types of Behavioral Conditioning they are Classical and Operant Conditioning, Classical Conditioning consists of a neutral stimulus and a natural stimulus and Operant consists of learning through reinforcements and punishments. (Cherry, Kendra Paragraph 4) Behaviorism is mostly concerned with observable behaviors rather than internal behaviors like thinking and your emotions. (McLeod, S. A. Paragraph 2)
Behaviorism and My Worldview
I think that behaviorism and my worldview about god aligns together because there are several times in the bible that conditioning is present. Jesus denied all the times that the devil tried to get him to commit sin Jesus went to the scriptures and his respectfulness to the scriptures. I thought that made them so much alike because it was Jesus obeying scriptures that kept him from sinning. I think that was a good point that links them together. Jesus outsmarted the devil by making sure he was keeping to his scriptures so he wouldn’t sin.
In my Future Work
I think that this will help me in my future coursework because. Most of the stuff I read and researched about gave me a better understanding of what some of these developmental theories and worldviews really meant. I will this to help keep me motivated in everything that I do from day to day and to truly put more thought in what I am doing. I never would have thought reading about behaviorism would give me thoughts about my worldview and things I haven’t experienced yet. A lot of the reading I done helped me understand this a lot better and I hope to have the chance to learn some more about worldview and the different developmental theories.
