​Dr. Haupt has discovered that often, abusive parents themselves had parents who used harsh physical punishment on them. Having discovered this will most likely allow Dr. Haupt to fulfill which goal of psychology?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Predicting behavior.

Explanation:

The way predicting behavior works is by, as it's name suggests, analizing certain phenomenon and discovering their causes or origins with the purpose of obtaining their motivations, sources, the root of the problem. In this case, what Dr. Haupt has discovered, is that: abusive parents have often had abusive parents themselves. Therefore, if a child has or had an harsh physical punishment on them, is likely that they will repeat that pattern. Therefore, if studied deeply, this could end up being a predicting behavior.
