Product of behaviour: i. e. anxiety is a product of behaviour i. e. losing weight is a product of behaviour (exercising is the behaviour) It"s critical to differentiate (cid:498)behaviours(cid:499) and (cid:498)products of behaviours(cid:499) Deficits: too little of a particular behaviour i. e. not brushing your teeth for long enough. Excess: too much of a particular behaviour: too much drinking. With behaviour modification, the focus is on techniques and ways of altering a person"s environment to help change the behaviour.
