behaviour

We may have justified our behaviour by thinking of ourselves principally as selfless.

The more they understand the origins of their behaviour, the more the anxious can perceive that it has outlived its uses.

Observational data is information collected from watching people's natural behaviour without interfering in it.

Sapolsky’s theory of Human Behavioral Biology claims that behind every behaviour , is a biological process that is the product of natural selection.

We like to think we're always in control of our behaviour, but are we?

We like to think we're always in control of our behaviour, but are we?

A parasite that can influence behaviour.

To liberate ourselves, we need to find our way back to the pain that lies behind our behaviours.

But it's important to remember that this is based on observational data – information collected from watching people's natural behaviour and not from controlled medical trials.

We may call it anxious attachment, but this is too polite a term for what should, based on the behaviour it inspires on the ground, really be called angry attachment.

If Sapolsky is right, this implies that to truly understand human behavior, we would have to know exactly what happens in the 100 trillion connections of the brain a nanosecond before the behaviour occurs.
