Social Cognition -
Our environment influences the way we think and behave.
The way that we think, and behave, can also influence our environment.

Constructs -
"Constructs" are ideas and concepts that we cannot measure.
One example of a "construct" is behaviors & consequences, and the way that they affect one another.

Education -
"Education" is where we learn how to think and behave, based on observing other people and things,
and based on the consequences of our actions.

A Pure Behaviorist -
Someone who doesn't believe that thoughts matter. They believe that only actions and behaviors matter, in order to learn about personality.
