Question Description
The major theoretical perspectives can be used to help us understand and explain lots of behaviors. For this forum, you will apply these perspectives to analyze the case of Andrea Yates. After you have read the case study about her story, address the following.
Select 3 of the perspectives and provide an explanation using that perspective to explain her behavior. For the 3 perspectives you select, you should tell me, in your own words, what the perspective says about the cause of behavior. Then, describe how it explains the cause of Andrea's behavior. Each post will be about 200-300 words.
NOTE: This question is not about your opinion of what she did but rather, how a psychologist would explain it. To earn full-credit, you must clearly demonstrate an understanding of the perspectives you select and correctly and appropriately apply them to the Yates case.
