人类并不容易理解。即使它们是,我们大多数人现在生活在一个复杂的世界里,这个世界让我们脱离了几千年来塑造人类和人类意识的自然模式和驱动因素。要想理解现代社会中人们的行为方式和原因,我们不仅需要理解等式中人性的一面,还需要大量了解这种行为发生的社会背景。本文的目的是提出一些不同的观点,可以用来理解和解释行为。它将这些 在一个框架内,展示了每种方法如何有助于发展一个广泛的行为观。在本文中,“行为”一词 在最广泛的意义上,“人们做什么”被用来简单地指“人们做什么”。 警告!警告!本文的目的是作为一个简单的介绍,一系列的理论,来自非常不同的学术背景,并提出他们的方式,鼓励政策制定,考虑到他们所有。因此,理论中一些更微妙的方面不可避免地被简化了。因此,强烈建议读者阅读额外推荐的文献,以更全面地了解每个观点。
Human beings are not simple to understand. Even if they were, most of us now live in a complex world that has allowed us to become detached from the natural patterns and drivers that have shaped humans and human consciousness over millennia of evolution. To try and understand how and why people behave the way they do in modern society requires us not just to understand the human side of the equation, but also to understand a great deal about the social context in which this behaviour occurs. The purpose of this paper is to set out a number of different perspectives that can be used to understand and interpret behaviour. It sets these out within a framework that demonstrates how each approach can contribute something valuable towards developing a broad view of behaviour. Within this paper the term ‘behaviour’ is used to refer simply to ‘what people do’ in the broadest terms. WARNING! The intention behind this paper is to act as a simple introduction to a range of theories that come from very distinct academic backgrounds, and to present them in a way that encourage policies to be developed that take them all into account. As a consequence, some of the more nuanced aspects of the theories are inevitably simplified. Therefore the reader is strongly encouraged to read the additional recommended literature to get a fuller understanding of each perspective.
