Answer 1

The human behaviour is a kind of multidimensional process in which we can find different approaches, beliefs, understandings and individual differences. Human behaviour influence by various factors and needs.

Biological perspective- This perspective of behaviour describe a human as a biological machine which works by the natural rules, our biological needs develop behaviour so that a human behaviour is only depends on body physical needs.

Psychological perspective- The psychological perspective describes the human behaviour as the abstract situation, the behaviour conditioned by learning, conditioning, thinking, emotions and critical reasoning.

Philosophical perspective- According to this perspective, the human behaviour is concerned by supernatural identities, values and morality. The philosophical views of human behaviour defines ideas and thoughts which decide the behaviour and influence it so far.

Psychoanalysis Perspective- Sigmund Freud, detailed that the behaviour of an individual belongs to life instincts and also refers to unconscious, subconscious and conscious mind. The id, ego and super ego decide the human behaviour.

Social perspective- Some social psychologist described that the behaviour of a human depends on social situations, beliefs and social pressures but some time we can see the exceptional condition in this theory.

            In my opinion, the human behaviour is a combination of all the above things and beyond that too. Sometimes human behaviour influenced by biological or primary needs, while other hand we can see that some human overlap the biological needs. Abraham Maslow defined the elements of human behaviour as Need hierarchy while Carl Rogers described it as Cognition and Application. Social psychologists described that the human behaviour is learned by society and influenced by social beliefs. Well we have lot of elements which develop individual as well as collective human behaviour.

Finally we can say that the human behaviour have many definitive and non-definitive factors those are interrelated.
