21
Q
  1. There is “organization, interaction, interdependency and integration of the parts and elements of behaviors that go to make up the system”
A

FOUR ASSUMPTION OF SYSTEM

22
Q
  1. A system “tends to achieve a balance among the various forces operating withing and upon it and that man strive continually to maintain a behavioral system balance and steady state by more or less automatic adjustments and adaptations to the natural forces impinging upon him”
A

FOUR ASSUMPTION OF SYSTEM

23
Q
  1. A behavioral system, which both requires and results in some degree of regularity and constancy in behavior is essential to man who is to say, it is functionally significant in that it serves a useful purpose, both in social life and for the individual
A

FOUR ASSUMPTION OF SYSTEM

24
Q
  1. “system balance reflects adjustments and adaptations that are successful in some way and to some degree”
A

FOUR ASSUMPTION OF SYSTEM

25
Q

From the form the behavior takes and the consequences it achieves can be inferred what “drive” has been stimulated or what “goal” is being sought

A

ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF EACH SUBSYSTEM

26
Q

Each individual has a “predisposition to act with reference to the goal, in certain ways rather than the other ways” This predisposition is called a “set”

A

ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF EACH SUBSYSTEM

27
Q

Each subsystem has a repertoire of choices or “scope of action”
the fourth assumption is that it produces “observable outcome” that is the individual’s behavior

A

ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF EACH SUBSYSTEM

28
Q

System must be “protected” from noxious influences with which system cannot cope”

A

three functional requirements of each subsite

29
Q

Each subsystem must be “nurtured” through the input of appropriate supplies from the environment

A

three functional requirements of each subsite

30
Q

Each subsystem must be “stimulated” for use to enhance growth and prevent stagnation

A

three functional requirements of each subsite

31
Q

These behaviors are “orderly, purposeful and predictable and sufficiently stable and recurrent to be amenable to description and explanation”

A

three functional requirements of each subsite

32
Q

social inclusion intimacy and the formation and attachment of a strong social bond

A

Attachment or affiliative subsystem

33
Q

approval, attention or recognition and physical assistance

A

Dependency subsystem

34
Q

the emphasis is on the meaning and structures of the social events surrounding the occasion when the food is eaten

A

Ingestive subsystem

35
Q

human culture have defined different socially acceptable behaviors for excretion of waste but the existence of such a pattern remains different from culture to culture

A

Eliminative subsystem

36
Q

both biological and social factor affect the behavior in the sexual subsystem

A

Sexual subsystem

37
Q

it relates to the behaviors concerned with protection and self-prevention Johnson vies aggressive subsystem as one that generates a defensive response from the individual when life or territory is being threatened

38
Q

provokes behavior that attempt to control the environment intellectual, physical, creative, mechanical and social skills achievement are some of the areas that Johnson recognizes

A

39
Q

according to her, “each individual has patterned, pusposeful, repetitive ways of acting that comprises a behavioral system specific to that individual”

A

Dorothy Johnson

40

Q

An external force acting to preserve the organization and integration of the patient’s behavior to an optimal level
