Psychological theories try to explain why people act the way they do, but they often miss the mark.

• Behaviorism looks only at actions we can see, ignoring what’s happening inside our minds.
• Psychoanalysis focuses on hidden desires, which makes it tough to prove its ideas.
• Cognitive psychology tends to skip over how feelings affect what we do.

These gaps give us a weak picture of human behavior.

But if we blend different theories together, we might get a clearer view.

This mixed approach could help us understand the complicated ways our minds work!
