Hello everyone,

I'm looking for help understanding the 4 main functions of behaviour. I've been researching the topic and found some information, but I'm still having trouble understanding the concept fully. Can anyone help explain the 4 main functions to me, or point me in the right direction of where I can find more information on the topic? I'd really appreciate any help or advice on the topic.
