According to our book behavior modification is a treatment approach which is focused on changing people’s (and animal’s) behavior through a systematic program based on the learning principles of classical conditioning, operant conditioning, or observational learning. I believe that Behavior Modification should be used in society to shape the behavior of others, since it can help those with psychological needs to look after themselves and rely less on others for basic needs. And since, behavior modification is used to treat different mental disorders such as ADHD, enuresis, and OSD and many others, it can help not only people with mental disorders but also with their families deal with these people in order to improve their home environment.
