 'The Inner Circle' (washingtonpost.com)
At times The Inner Circle calls to mind not Sexual Behavior in the Human Male and Sexual Behavior in the Human Female (1953) but a somewhat later classic of social science: Obedience to Authority, Stanley Milgram's famous account of the human tendency to follow orders, no matter who they hurt or what their consequences.
When a nurse allows herself to be filmed having vigorous intercourse with one of the inner circle, we are left admiring her easygoing, guilt-free assertion that she simply enjoys men.
For The Inner Circle is a novel in the style of The Aspern Papers and The Good Soldier, one of those books that offer pitiless accounts of self-delusion, moral corruption, betrayal and unconscious cruelty.

 Raise with Praise, Reward-Based Dog Training
In 1991, Paul drew on his unique experience and background to address the link between human and animal behavior by founding the non-profit educational organization Raise with Praise, Inc. Over the years Paul has taught and consulted for thousands of families and individuals working to improve the dog-human relationship.
Because of the link between dog and human behavior, it's possible that a holistic program of nonviolent dog training, coupled with self-health stress management methods, may play a role in helping build a world of peace for humans and dogs.
Paul has studied, practiced and taught yoga and stress management (for humans) in the United States and India for more than 25 years.

 Christian metal
Metal exists as a form of art in music, one which hopes to communicate the unusual and profound through mundane means, and as such aspires to be the form of expression which communicates a connection of human beings to life in all of its forms.
Christianity is the historical source and forerunner of morality-based compromise behavior, and it should be kept out of metal if metal wishes to main distinct from mainstream musics which as a prerequisite for social discourse are falsely benevolent.
Since the dawn of metal, there have been imitators, and none are more cowardly than those who attempt to take the philosophy of value in nothingness and freedom in a lack of allegiance to necessary ideas and convert it to an obedience to "necessary principles" such as the omnipotence of gOD or a moral authority.

One trainer, who specializes in classes and behavior problem solving in large and other independent breeds, such as Mastiffs, said it is the best of the big dog books; easy to read, and has found that her clients do read it and that it speaks to the owners of these dogs.

 Educational Psychology Interactive: Moral and Character Development
Character development traditionally has focused on those traits or values appropriate for the industrial age such as obedience to authority, work ethic, working in group under supervision, etc. However, as discussed in the SCANS report (1991) and Huitt's (1997) critique, modern education must promote character based on values appropriate for the
Therefore, character development must be seen as an organic process in the development of the material/physical, human/psychological, and spiritual/transcendental aspects of human being.
The measurement of character has proven difficult since character, by definition, involves behavior, but character is often defined in terms of traits (i.e., honesty, integrity, etc.).

 Doberman Rescue Unlimited
The prey drive of many of the sporting dogs is shaped and conditioned into retrieving behavior: the human actually kills the prey and the canine simply fetches it without eating it.
Prey drive is not always a problem in the more versatile working and herding breeds, who tend to be higher in defense (guarding behavior) and may have been developed to protect other species of animals that would look like dinner to a more primitive canid like a wolf or a coyote.
You can only use obedience training as a way of maintaining control when the prey drive starts to kick in.

 Brainwashing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brainwashing or thought reform is the application of coercive techniques to change the beliefs or behavior of one or more people for political purposes.
Note that some religious groups, especially those of Hindu and Buddhist origin, openly state that they seek to improve the natural human mind by spiritual exercises.
Benjamin Zablocki sees brainwashing as "term for a concept that stands for a form of influence manifested in a deliberately and systematically applied traumatizing and obedience-producing process of ideological resocializations" and states this same concept had historically also been called thought reform and coercive persuasion.

 Influence
This principle of Social Proof can be used to stimulate a person's compliance with a request by informing him or her that many other individuals, perhaps some that are role models, are or have observed this behavior.
The strength of this tendency to obey legitimate authorities is derived from the systematic socialization practices designed to instill in society the perception that such obedience constitutes correct conduct.
According to sociologists and anthropologists, one of the most widespread and basic norms of human culture is embodied in the rule of reciprocity.
