behaviour

[Unregistered]

Hi there,

When should I use 'behaviour' as countable and uncountable noun?
For example,
We study the behaviour(s) of human beings and animals.

Thanks

When ‘behavior’ (as a count noun) means somebody or something behaves in a particular situation and not somebody beaves towards other people. I think the plural form is more appropriate in your sentence.
