Pyhschological approaches

Luke is 13 years old. He is behaving in a very aggressive manner at home. This is becoming an increasing concern for his mum and she confides in her friend that her daughter, Kate, was never as aggressive as her brother. What is going on? Apply psychological understanding to explain Luke’s behaviour. You need to explain why Luke might be behaving in this way using two of the following psychological approaches:- Biological, Psychodynamic, Humanistic, Cognitive and Behavioural (this includes classical and operant conditioning and social learning theory). You need to outline the main elements of the two chosen approaches and provide an evaluation of both approaches by considering their strengths and weaknesses.
