Hello Everyone!!! I hope you are having a great time over there? It's really nice to see you visit my blog today and I must say I'm really happy to have a great personality like you visiting my blog today 馃槉. Thank you once again 馃挄
Human behaviour is sometimes natural feature we all possess as an individual even though our behaviour has humans tends to differ from individual to individual depending on some specific factors which I will be sharing with you today.
Another important thing we also need to know is that Human behaviour is an imperative concept in the study of Psychology as this is in accordance with the statement of David Watson whom once stated that "Psychology is the science of human behaviour and the things that happens in the mind to create it. It's a subject that facinitate almost everyone because we all have notions of what's normal and what's not". The fact that humans tend to act or behave differently connotes that there's a psychological differences in the life of every human and this is also explains why there's always changes in behavior or character amongst twins, brothers or sisters who might have succled from the same parent.
From the little research I conducted based on questionnaire, experience and the Internet, I found out that there are five factors that influence the behavior of humans and I definitely hope you will learn something great from this write up. I suggest you grab some delicious pop corn and tasty coffee to step down this post within your body system as I share with you the five factors that affects human behavior.
#1 FAMILY
There's actually no doubt that a child first ever source or means of primary education is the family. This is because every child upbringing lies in the hands of his or her parent. This was also stated in a content by all4kids blog which is quoted below;
A child鈥檚 learning and socialization are most influenced by their family since the family is the child鈥檚 primary social group. Child development happens physically, emotionally, socially, and intellectually during this time.
It is also very important to note that this stage of influence or education is a highly delicate and fragile phase for the kids upbringing because kids tends to grow with what their being taught at such a very early stage due to their highly effective receptive learning skills and ability. This is why most of us have never forgotten most of the lullabies or poem and even both the Alphabets and some multiplication table we were taught back then till this moment simple because of our high ability to grab anything we were being taught back then.
In summary and conclusion, the family/home is the first source that affects human behavior due to the fact that parents or guardian can train or bring up their kids according to their wish or want.
#2 EDUCATION
Education is simply the act or process of learning and developing oneself by receiving or giving systematic instructions in an educational institution. The mistake most people do make is that we tend to mix up being educated with literacy not knowing that you can be educated and still be an illiterate.. Anyways, that's not my talk for today 馃槉.
Education is another essential tool that helps to influence the behaviour of man, in fact most people would corroborate with me that education has over 50% influence in the lives of human beings. According to a publication on worldvision, Charizze Abulencia stated that;
Education develops critical thinking. This is vital in teaching a person how to use logic when making decisions and interacting with people (e.g., boosting creativity, enhancing time management). Education helps an individual meet basic job qualifications and makes them more likely to secure better jobs.
The fact is that most parents or people wants their kids or families to be educated due to great benefit attached to being educated. This is really the dream or hope of almost everyone because "Education is a power tool that can be used to change the world" as stated by the late Nelson Mandela.
In summary and conclusion, you can clearly tell that there will certainly be a great difference between an educated folk and uneducated person by the way they tend to live their lives such as their method of speaking, composure, dressing, lifestyle, decision making, judgement and some other aspect. The astonishing fact is that the one with the educated qualities might not possess such qualities when he or she isn't educated but since he/she has tasted the fruit of knowledge through education, you will definitely observe that drastic change in his or her lifestyle.
#3 ENVIRONMENT
Another important tool that changes human behaviour is one's environment. The environment consists of some important elements such as nature and humans (peer pressure) which tends to influence or impact the lives and behaviour of men in one or the other.
A good example can be observed in the lives of travelers or immigrants who left their home (initial environment) for another country (new environment) in pursuit of greener pastures to live a more better life. You can clearly tell that difference in such people's accent or mode of communication when speaking and a slight difference in the mode of their dressing most especially if the person happens to travel to an international country (abroad) for schooling or working purpose.
The environment tend to influence human behaviour by making use of the available humans in such environment and the surrounding. This is why someone who used to be shy may become confident when he starts rolling with highly confident people through environmental changes.
In summary and conclusion, never ever underestimate the power of environment in the lives of people because environment is a major factor that can influence the behaviour of humans. A person from the trenches with a poor mindset may develop outstanding and extra ordinary good business ideas or proposals if he's being surrounded by wealthy business tycoons.
4 RELIGION
The last but not the least most effective method of influencing human behaviour is through one's faith, belief or religion. Being religious simply means manifesting a faithful devotion to an acknowledged ultimate reality or deity. The Muslims believe in the concept of Islamic monotheism by worshiping one God and obeying the messenger of God while the Christians happens to be the follower of Christ and also believing strongly in the gospel.
Religion is a strong factor which also helps to influence human behaviour most especially for those who are the believers of faith. This is why some religious people will tell you that they don't drink, gamble, fornicate, or engage in alcohol because they are being prohibited to engage in such act in their religious belief. The religious ones are always guided by their faith and religious belief which they tend to adopt living their lives totally.
In summary and conclusion, the believers or people of faith can be distinctively be differentiated from the disbelievers in terms of how they chose to live their lives. These effects can be also observed in their character, mode of dressing, appearance and many other factors. This also explains why a drunkard or an addicted alcoholic person will give up the habit of alcoholism when he becomes a believer of faith.
