Integrating Evolutionary Psychology and Behaviorism
Summary - All of us want to change other people's behavior to align more closely with our goals.

The central idea of this talk is that we are intuitive behaviorists and that our relationships, emotions, and mental health can be better understood if you consider how we evolved to change the behavior of others.
