Behaviorist theory is a psychological perspective that emphasizes observable behaviors and the ways they're learned through interactions with the environment, primarily through conditioning. It posits that all behaviors are acquired through conditioning, which can be either classical (associating two stimuli) or operant (associating behavior with consequences). This perspective connects to how language is learned, the stages through which it develops, and the cognitive processes involved in understanding language.
