Thus, if we couple expectations with predictions and perceptions, I believe that we can go a long way in changing behavior over time. If a person is going to behave based on what the brain see’s as most logical, then behavior can be changed by changing the logic. I am a true believer in congnitive therapy, for instance. I believe that cognitive therapy is rather strong proof that the patterns of ones behaviors can be changed by retraining the brain to set up the resultant behaviors to the desired outcome.
