Advantages of reductionism - Reducing behaviour to simple principles can have it's benefits because it makes behaviour easier to understand and develop hypotheses to test.

Biological reductionism is particularly problematic as biologists are often not concerned with why or how people might behave in a certain way just what biological processes are involved.
