Behaviouralism
• It developed due to the reaction of the quantitative and positivist approach, As the
quantitative revolution considered humans as economic rationality, however the
same is not true as per behaviouralism.
It is against the quantitative, positivism, and locational analysis approach, as they neglected the role of
religion, ethics, values, personal knowledge, etc.
Human feeling, values, culture, etc can not be codified in the statistical tool such as map, lines, graph, etc

Human is not a machine, they can improve their life by participatory observation, discussions, thinking &
acting.
