Reductionism theory: all behavior and experiences could be reduced to biological factors such as the nervous system and the brain.
Moghaddam argues that there are things within psychology that can not be reduced to biology and that they are a result/impact of culture and society on individuals rather. That being said, he still supports the theory but it is not the sole explanation to the learning process and our behavior.
Moghaddam states that learning in everyday life is a social process and that through interaction with others we participate in construction of meaning systems. Those meaning systems differ and vary between and within cultures.

Hi Hajar,
Nice work. I like how you defined what a reductionist Theory is. I would suggest to explain more on why Moghaddam have a less favor for reductionist theory. I know you have mentioned one point, but it would be helpful if you could offer more explanation.
other than that, i like your explanation. Good Work
Sincerely, Ali
