everyday life

Profiling is not an easy task to accomplish. One must have the ability to focus and study a human being without being distracted. By studying the behavior of a human you can find out almost anything you need to know about them. You can tell when they are lying or nervous. Behavioral science is used in everyday lives. Its used in a physical way to determine where you stand with a person. Its used in mental ways to determine whether or not you will get along with somebody. Many times when you’ve been around someone for a long period of time, you begin to notice different things about a persons behavior. For instance if you sister was lying to you about wearing your clothes, you could possibly tell she lying by a physical change in her, maybe she will stutter or possibly just fidget with her hands. These are distinct ways of analyzing someone’s behavior.

Since I have decided to switch to behavioral therapist, there are different profiles I will be studying. By creating a patients profile, you discover what there problem is. You can decide which disorder or disease they fall under. Once their disorder is decided, you can help them deal with it or slowly get over/ move on with it.

Today in class we were talking about PTSD. We were profiling the soldiers and their behavior to determine whether or not they had PTSD. You don’t have to be an expert to study ones behavior. But if you enjoy it and want to use it to help others It is a good idea to become professional. There are many more careers that involve behavioral science. Whatever career you decide, it is still a good idea to take psychology and sociology classes in college. They will help you in the long run and are interesting classes.

You also decide your friends through behavioral science. You study a persons behavior and personality in order to decide if you want them to be your friend or not. If you find to many personality flaws you cant avoid you simply don’t choose them as a friend. Another way it helps you with your friends is by determining their flaws. Once you determine a persons flaws you try to work around them in as many ways as possible. Everyone uses behavioral science, but many times people don’t notice when they use it.
