Standard Behavior under Legal Control: A Behavioristic Approach

Abstract

The standard behavior based on the so-called legal type of control is considered. The mechanisms of modeling of required behavior through standard rules, ways of increasing its probability, tools of transfer of behavior in various situations are analyzed. The distinction of patterns of individual behavior, as well as its social forms facilitating the cumulative effect is made. The standard rules prescribe a order of actions in any situation. The standard regulation of behavior structurally reproduces the model of control of behavior due to existing consequences (i.e. includes guideline of conditions, expected behavior and its result) and can be analyzed with the help of the so-called ABC-scheme or formula SDR-C. It is indicated the functional role of the rule in the type of operation behavior. Moreover, it is mentioned the complexity of rule-governed behavior identification in the line of other behavior acts. The analysis of rule essence is paid a lot of attention to.
