Abstract:
People show similar reactions to similar stimulants but they may show different reactions as well. We are all very similar and yet very different. As expressed in many psychological theories, each person is "unique and different". Everyone feels pain when they lose the person they love. However, everyone experiences their own pain in different ways. There are many psychological theories that explain the reason for different behavioral and emotional responses to similar stimulants. While behavioral theory explains how people behave focusing on learning experiences, the psychoanalytic theory explains the behavioral differences with the individual's instincts and drives. On the other hand, cognitive psychologists accept that although the stimulants are similar, the perception of the individuals differs. Humanistic psychologists accept that human nature as positive but the environmental circumstances such as education, parental issues may lead negative behaviors. It is possible to expand these views on this topic. Based on the theory to understand the behaviour, by putting some limitations in order to study and to observe the behaviour easily, complex approaches work on some concepts such as love, anger, angression etc. To study and understand the close relationships is one of the subjects that are still being tried to be understood due to its contributions to the theoretical field and the field of practice. One of the most important works in the field to understanding interpersonal close relationships is Bowlby's "Attachment Theory". On the other hand, the views of Young (1990), who explained adaptation or maladaptive behaviors with "Early Schemas" in the last two decades, brought up the question of whether attachment or schemas are effective in close relationships. The review discussion in this topic is given below.
