John Watson believed that differences in learning experiences were responsible for differences in behavior. He is even quoted as saying: “Give me a dozen healthy infants, well-formed, and my own specified world to bring them up in and I’ll guarantee to take any one at random and train him to become any type of specialist I might select—doctor, lawyer, artist, merchant-chief and, yes, even beggar-man and thief, regardless of his talents, penchants, tendencies, abilities, vocations and the race of his ancestors.” In a blank document, respond to the questions below. Your response should be around 250-300 words in total. Be sure to use your textbook to support your claims and don’t forget to cite your source in APA format.

Do you agree with or disagree with Watson? Why? What do you know about learning that helps support your opinion? Cite your sources as you support your thinking. What aspects of the human experience cannot be explained using behaviorism?
