                          1. Strengths
                            1. If we can discover which behaviours are determined by the situation this may be useful for society.
                              1. If we discover which behaviours are down to the individual we may be able t find ways of treating them.
                                1. Discovering that behaviour may involve a complex interaction between individual and situational factors opens up new directions for further research
                                2. weaknesses
                                  1. It can be difficult to separate the effects of a situation from the disposition of the person so how can we highlight cause and effect.
                                    1. Rather than individual or situational factors being exclusive alternatives, there may be a complex interaction between the two. Relying on just one or the other will be reductionist.
