Hej Poul - Jeg er enig med dig i at NLP ikke kan kategoriseres under behaviourisme - så kan det jo diskuteres, om det er det de skriver på den hjemmeside. Men stadig mener jeg, at det i denne sammenhæng ikke kommer an på, om den enkelte sætning - som er en reference - er helt psykologisk/teoretisk korrekt - sagen er vel, om vi kan blive enige om, at termen for behaviorism på engelsk er behaviorisme på dansk. Hvis vi er enige om det, bør der vel ikke stå disagree... :-) (Men du mener måske, at den henvisning er så misvisende, at den bør slettes? Vi kan jo nok sagtens finde andre :-)
