Psychological behaviorism is a research program within psychology. It purports to explain human and animal behavior in terms of external physical stimuli, responses, learning histories, and (for certain types of behavior) reinforcements.his non-behavioral something is environmental stimuli and an organism's interactions with, and reinforcement from, the environment. So, the third reason for behaviorism's appeal is that it tries to avoid circular, regressive explanations of behavior.
