I feel like determinism could fit too. Behavior is influenced by factors.

I’m confused about parsimony and how it fits in. I thought it was about simplicity in explanations, but I don’t see that here.

This question reminds me of a practice one we did on behavior analysis assumptions. I feel like skepticism could fit, but I’m leaning more towards empiricism.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about determinism being about behavior being influenced by prior events. Could that apply here?

I think this might relate to empiricism since Marvell is gathering data through interviews and observations before making decisions.
