There are many different perspectives in early psychology. The different perspectives are behavioral, psychodynamic, humanistic, physiological, evolutionary, cognitive, and cultural and diversity. First, I’ll start with the behavioral perspective. The behavioral perspective focuses on the importance of learning in understanding how various behaviors occur. In other words, it acknowledges observable behavior and emphasizes the learned nature of behavior. The way this perspective came about was with a Russian physiologist named Ivan Pavlov. He started to notice the different types of behavior in dogs, when they started to salivate at the sight of food or heard the keys when the door was about to be unlocked where the dogs were at. This brought us to observe the development of how living things relate to the events in they’re environment. Now, on to the psychodynamic perspective. Psychodynamic perspective suggests that both normal and abnormal behaviors are determined primarily by unconscious forces. A man named Sigmund Freud developed this perspective.
