we always influence from the sources like relitives, friends, teachers etc. when we see someone calling an old man a 'moaner' and when he/she repeats that, we are likely to believe that. by the time we grow up, we know most of the old mens are moaner. this is called prejudicial behaviour. the language we use for example "you are a dirty old man" means we believe that most of the old men have strong sex drive. for that the language we use is prejudicial language. thanx Abbas javed

Is the word moaner prejudicial language?

a) Why is this prejudicial language? I am not convinced this is prejudicial language. It might be based on many years of accurate observation, in much the same way as referring to someone as honest, hardworking, punctual etc. could be. It is a negative label though which, while accurate, may influence the opinion of people who did not know the older person aswell as the one labelling, and that could be prejudicial. b) Why is this prejudicial behaviour? It would be prejudicial if disclosed to those who were not familiar with the individual and helped form their opinion of that individual. However, all labels could do that, whether negative or positive, so one would have to conclude that all labels are prejudicial. c) What effect could this have on the person? It is suggested that it would lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy with the person becoming a moaner because of the label attached to them. While in some cases this could be a contributing factor it does not take into account cause and effect. The label could not be attached to an individual unless the individual had first been 'moaning'. To suggest that prejudicial language will create the condition is somewhat simplistic, and is itself a generalisation which fails to recognise a persons individuality.

Why might a learned behavior change?

A learned behavior might change due to new experiences or information that challenge the old behavior's usefulness or effectiveness. Additionally, changes in external circumstances or the environment may require adapting the behavior to better suit the new situation. Finally, personal growth and development can lead to a change in values, attitudes, or beliefs, prompting a shift in learned behaviors.
