Behaviorist’s belief focuses more on the behavior as an independent action and the influences to the behavior.Mentalists may argue that actions and behaviors are caused by internal not observable events or thoughts and these carry the foundation of behavior. A behaviorist argues that all behavior can be observable and non-observable and behavior is a response to a trigger or stimulus regardless.For example, my nine year old son has autism. I, tend to want to put an emotion behind his actions to help appease my own feelings and thoughts. When, the reason he wanted to watch YouTube was not because he was bored and I was bad mom, but simply he wanted to watch Legos therefore he turned on YouTube. As a mentalist thought, we use emotion to appease our feelings of inadequacy which is a behavior put forth by our emotion. Behaviorally, since my son was not actively engaged in an activity and he knew how to access the internet for YouTube kids Lego videos, he did, because he wanted to watch Legos.
