Dimensions for a Concept of Humanity #15

Skinner sought after an optimistic approach in which individuals carry on in manners

that are cherishing, reasonable, vote based, autonomous, also, great, yet individuals
are not commonly along these lines. Be that as it may, nor are they basically
fiendish. Inside cutoff points set by heredity, individuals are adaptable in their
adjustment to the earth, however no assessment of good or fiendishness ought to be
set on a person's conduct. On the off chance that an individual ordinarily acts
charitably to benefit others, it is because this conduct, either in the species'
developmental history or in the person's individual history, has been recently fortified.
In the event that one carries on apprehensive, it is on the grounds that the prizes for
weakness exceed the aversive factors Skinner trusted that individuals may be
reliable, seeing, warm, and empathic—qualities that are like Carl Rogers accepted to
be at the center of the mentally solid character.

As opposed to Rogers, who accepted that these positive practices are at any rate in
part the outcome of the human ability to act naturally coordinated, Skinner held that
they are totally heavily influenced by ecological factors. People are not commonly
acceptable, however they can turn out to be so in the event that they are presented
to the correct possibilities of strengthen environment. In spite of the fact that his
perspective on the perfect individual would be like those of Rogers also, Abraham H.
Maslow, Skinner accepted that the methods for getting self-governing, adoring, and
self-completing must not be left to risk, however, ought to be explicitly structured into
the general public. The historical backdrop of an individual decides conduct, and in
light of the fact that every human has a solitary history of support possibilities,
conduct and character are generally one of a kind. Hereditary contrasts likewise
represent uniqueness among individuals. Organic and authentic contrasts shape one
of a kind people, and Skinner emphasized individuals' uniqueness more than he did
their similitudes.
