The design of these systems and their contents are based on behavioral change theories and models for behavioral change over time. [3] The theory of planned behavior describes the relationship between attitudes, intentions, and the desired behavior. It is considered to be one of the most influential determinant models.
The behavioral approach to systems theory and control theory was initiated in the late-1970s by J. C. Willems as a result of resolving inconsistencies present in classical approaches based on state-space, transfer function, and convolution representations.
System structure diagrams – another way to express the structure of a qualitative dynamic system; Stock and flow diagrams - a way to quantify the structure of a dynamic system; These methods allow showing a mental model of a dynamic system, as an explicit, written model about a certain system based on internal beliefs.
Functional contextualism is a modern philosophy of science [1] rooted in philosophical pragmatism and contextualism.It is most actively developed in behavioral science in general and the field of behavior analysis and contextual behavioral science in particular (see the entry for the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science).
