Behavior

In fauceir theory, the term behavior may be defined on two levels of abstraction:

1. In its more stricter sense behavior is restricted to animal behavior. From the fauceir point of view an animal's behavior patterns are typical fauceirs that evolve more rapidly and exhibit a more plasticity than genetic fauceirs, for instance, though they are also inherited to some extend. The transition of pure genetic fauceirs in more primitive animals to sophisticated behavioral patterns in higher ones is a typical example that bears all the marks of evolutionary progress.
2. In its more general sense behavior applies to all fauceirs.

If applied to all fauceirs behavior actually has two meanings:

1. Behavior as a character is the sum of all possible outcomes and its probabilities.
2. Behavior as a pattern is the some of all elementary reactions that lead to a particular outcome.

Given these definition it is clear that these two meanings almost coincide in animal behavior but considerably diverge in human behavior which is controlled by social fauceirs through consciousness.

If concerned with behavior as a fauceir we have to carefully discriminate these two meanings. Behavior as a fauceir is controlled and controls.

Behavior character

The fact that the behavioral character is the sum of all possible outcomes and its probabilities can be represented mathematically.

where N is the finite number of possible outcomes and p the probability of each outcome x with

Behavior pattern

In animals behavior patterns usually bear specific names, such as mating behavior, parenting, social behavior and so on. In less complex fauceirs, such as physical or chemical fauceirs, behavior patterns are more strict and even can become rules, such as an electron orbiting a nucleus or a mirror reflecting a light beam. In more complex fauceirs, such as humans, some behavioral patterns become fringe behavior such as alcoholism or criminal behavior.
