Answer preview

Behavioural approach denotes a means of explaining behaviour depending on observation and learning. A particular behaviour can result from classical learning and continue because of operant conditioning (Holt and Lewis, 2015, p. 101).

Classical conditioning involves learning through association. Learning takes place when unconditioned and new neutral stimuli become repeatedly linked together, creating a similar response that influences replicate the initially produced stimuli (Holt and Lewis, 2015).
