Learned behaviours appear in fully functional form the first time they are performed. True or false?

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

@Abhisar

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

hey bro can you help me out :)

OpenStudy (abhisar):

What do u think ?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Suppose u don't know what a wire carries and accidently touch it. You get a shock and learn from the experience to avoid such wires in the future. This is learned behaviours. Now what do u think should be the correct answer ?

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

i know what it is, its just i dont understand the "appear in fully functional form the first time they are performed" part.

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

does that mean they are are innate or something?

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

how does a learned behaviour appear fully functional???

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

does fully functional form mean the person learns from it straight away?

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

i dunno if the question is worded weird or my brain is lol

OpenStudy (abhisar):

That's what i tried to xplain u in the example (if u read it carefully). It can't be fully functional from begining.

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

So its false

OpenStudy (abhisar):

yes

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

okay thats great to know the answer but i dont get why it is called a "fully functional form"

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

why not call it something else

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

like a erudition experience or something

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

fully functional form denotes something more abstract

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

to me at least, its a silly way of saying it

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Fully functional form means in a "complete manner."

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

like as if its incomplete without some aspect

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

yea

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Learned behaviors take time to get perfect.

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

so the learned knowledge isnt complete until after the event has occured?

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

cause that makes sense to me

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

perchance it doesnt even exist until then

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Yes how can it be complete before the event. Suppose u don't know spanish and i ask u a question in spanish then will u be able answer it untill u learn it ?

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

Sweet

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

Cheers bro

OpenStudy (praetorian.10):

i'll probs have a dozen more questions coming your way soon :)
