| Behaviorismo/conductismo | Definition: Behaviorismo (generalmente utilizado en portugués, pero también admitido en español) o más comúnmente conocido con Conductismo en español. La teoría psicológica se denomina formalmente "psicología conductista".
En algunos artículos también podrás ver "ciencia comportamental", pero personalmente considero que es una "traducción literal" y por mis estudios en ciencias sociales puedo asegurar que se habla de "conductismo" o "psicología conductista".
Ver: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psicología_conductista
