Human Behavior

Animals survive purely off instinct. Although humans have other factors in their behaviors, many behaviors are based off of the same instinctual value,. i.e., a monkey will fight to the death to protect their offspring, as will many human beings.

Animals and humans share many behaviors. A fascinating PBS film entitled "Monkey in the Mirror" discusses that topic. Recent studies of animals in the wild have also revealed that humans and animals also share emotions. Another great PBS production to watch is "Inside the Animal Mind". It is difficult to watch the behavior of chimps and not see a human connection in our similar behaviors.

Genetics are one possibility. Some people are gay and believe they were born that way.

Studies have shown that there is a clear physiological difference between the way the brains of gay people process sensory inputs and those of straight or even bi people. It has been found through brain imaging that gay men process smells completely differently to straight men and that the patterns observed are far closer to those seen in straight women.

Our understanding of genetics have changed in recent years to accept the possibility of environmental factors impacting upon the expression of certain genes and this combined with the known fact that some rats are born gay during periods of over population suggest a clear and obvious evolutionary reason for a gayness to exist. If one views evolution through the selfish gene hypothesis one can see that it isn't just a case of passing on your own genes but sometimes it is more advantageous to assist a close relative to pass on theirs. If resources were becoming scarce it would be advantageous to have some of the current generation attracted to their own gender and therefore unable to procreate - prior to modern technology existing or through taking part in an act they find repulsive (straight sex). This would avoid too much demand for resources in the next generation.

It is entirely possible that we all possess a gay gene and that it is often suppressed to some degree. Gay and bisexual people may be born without the ability to suppress this or may only have limited suppression abilities.

Other studies have clearly shown that homosexuality is, however repressed by social norms, clearly visible in behaviors and preferences from the earliest ages of sexual awakening in children.

Or you could prefer to believe that an all loving God chooses to punish some people and make them live a life suppressing their true selves in order to wash away ancient sins that the death of Christ was supposed to have absolved us of already. Some contributors here find that to be an odd way to view a loving God and therefore believe that some people are just born gay and God loves us all. But then some others believe that Christ's death is only for those who accept Him to be their personal savior and take over their lives - thus giving the ability to resist sin. Ultimately, we all have to learn to find our own path and accept ourselves.

Like in roleplay games? Well sometimes when things have a large fanbase that people get into they think up additions to the original story or they don't like how somethings turned out therefore they'd like to change it. So what better way to do that than create a new character or take on the characteristics of an existing character and have them act the way you want them to?

It sounds geeky but it's very good to help boost up the ability to write stories and keeps you thinking. Not only that but it keeps you doing something.

so they don't die, i assume your one of the people that doesnt save people therefore you want people to die. you cruel person.

I am confused...was this answer to me??? I guess I wrote my question wrong...my 34 year old sister died six months ago suddenly last Saturday (didn't wake up) left behind 4 kids, husband, and I am trying to save everyone!!!! I can't make the lost better for my parents, for the kids (ages 2 -12) for my brother-in-law...etc. I am drowning in exhaustion and can't get ahead and was asked by my counselor of 2x's today of why am I trying to save everyone????

I think you have me confused...I am dealing with a horrible loss...and can't fix or make anybody's life better....I AM NOT TRYING TO KILL ANYONE.

When we "try to save someone" in the sense you are speaking of, it is usually because we hate to see people we care about and love suffer. Sometimes we feel we must be strong to care for our loved ones so that they don't become too overwhelmed by the emotions associated with the death of a family member. You need to remember, you are also within this family group, and you also need to allow yourself to grieve. The grieving period can be considerable and in some circumstances it may take years for a person to get back to "normal" life, especially a parent or spouse.

Just remember that the grieving process your family are going through is natural, and while it is great that you want to be there for them, don't forget about yourself. Make sure you are not withdrawing from your normal life activities too much, and maybe suggest your family members do the same. Keep a healthy diet, as grief can cause people to stop eating, and try to get a good amount of sleep. If this is proving difficult, consult a doctor or perhaps a mental health clinic.

Animal instinct kicks in and stops you but for the people that truley believe that life would be better dead (pun) carry it thru

Wow nice pun I really get the joke there's just one thing though whats truley is it like a trolley? nice grammar and run on sentence by the way it really helps people understand the question and NOT kill themselves.

Assertive behavior is helpful in conflict situations because it allows individuals to express their thoughts and feelings clearly and confidently, without being aggressive or passive. It helps to establish boundaries, communicate effectively, and work towards finding mutually beneficial solutions to the conflict. Additionally, being assertive can help to prevent misunderstandings and improve relationships in the long run.

well if smilling and fidgetting with your hands is observal learning then thinking, sight and hearing, is unobserval its really stuff you cant control like everyone has it and its always there, well for most people.

Part of this has to do with the prefrontal cortex of the brain. A healthy person doesn't have much of a load on this part of the brain, since they don't have to fight a lot of pain and stress. This part of the brain is what filters inappropriate behavior. Nearly anyone can be nasty, but the front of the brain is trained to where you can hold this back. Now, if you are actively trying to ignore pain, this part of the brain is busy. So a person's responses and behavior will be more raw, since they will come more from the limbic system and be unfiltered.

If he is telling you that he loves you time and again, you keep on saying that you are just good friends with him , tell him all your problems, he is always there whenever you felt things are not right. Now when he is being deported for a mission and he says he loves you deep down under its time to understand sincerity of his feelings.

The social learning theory was studied by psychologist Albert Bandura. The main aspect of this theory is that people, especially children learn by watching other's behavior and modeling that behavior in their own life. Another feature is reinforcement, so if a child sees another child do a certain action and get rewarded for it, the first child will be more likely to exhibit that behavior.

Watch their level of breathing. When someone is faking their sleep their breathing may appear normal, however their breathing is at a faster pace, compared to someone that is really sleeping.

yes.

The three-level model of human behavior proposes that behavior is influenced by biological factors (genes, physiology), psychological factors (thoughts, emotions), and social factors (relationships, environment). These three levels interact to shape individual behavior in a dynamic and complex manner. Understanding behavior from all three levels is important for a comprehensive understanding of human behavior.

It's possible that their fights began when they were children, and their differences have never been resolved. So they continue to fight as adults.

Men are ussually stronger, on average 20%.

Women are ussually better multi-taskers. They have on average four times as many cells connecting the left and right sides of their brains, allowing them to concentrate on more things at once better than men.

When a shy girl mimics your facial expressions, it could indicate that she is trying to connect with you and build rapport. Mirroring someone's expressions is a subconscious way of showing interest and empathy. It might be her way of trying to establish a closer emotional connection with you.

Intellectual abilities are typically categorized into different dimensions such as verbal ability, mathematical ability, visual-spatial ability, reasoning ability, and memory capacity. These dimensions can vary in each individual and can be assessed using various tests and measures.

Nope.It wont work out usually because the male in the relationship will work harder than the woman because she is immature and probably wont reach maturity until the guy finally says STOP! your getting on my nerves.

It's difficult to determine someone's true intentions without clear communication. It's important to have open and honest conversations to understand each other's feelings and motives. Don't make assumptions based on behavior alone.

because

The shy girl may feel more comfortable opening up and expressing herself when she's not facing direct eye contact or pressure from being the center of attention. It could also be that she feels more at ease when talking within a group setting because the focus is not solely on her, allowing her to feel less self-conscious or intimidated.

Yes!!

Pumpkins are cool.

It's a term of endearment to express affection.
