Hi , can someone give me one similarity between cognitive and biological approaches?.

Hello. I think both of them tend to focus on the internal factors that affect behaviour rather than external and they're both deterministic in the sense that people can't choose how they behave, their cognitive and biological characteristics, features and activities determine it for them. Hope this is helpful 🦋

Hi, one could maybe be that both approaches are deterministic (however, they are deterministic in different ways, cognitive is more soft determinism whereas biological focuses on behaviour being determined by biological processes and structures). This is somewhat a difference and similarity in one but I hope it helps anyway!

Thank you for the reply, this did help I thought the same and I just wanted to see if I had the correct idea. 🙂
