Document Summary

Describe three sport examples: behaviour generally means anything that a person says or does, but technically, it is any muscular, glandular, or electrical activity of an organism. A few examples would be shooting a basketball, yelling at an opponent, and doing a freestyle stroke in swimming. Question 2: what are 3 synonyms for behaviour: the three synonyms for behaviour are performance , response , and reaction . Illustrate an example: many people use general terms as reasons why behaviour occurs. My classmate was late because she"s not motivated to go to class. Illustrate a behavioural interpretation of one of the terms with reference to an example: a behavioural perspective views these general terms (intelligence, attitudes, motivation and personality) as a summary label rather than a detailed explanation for behaviour. For example: a karate instructor sees one of their students is motivated compared to the other students, because they learn faster than other students.
