      Good question Ellie! Hello again 🙂

      Hmmm, I’m probably more of a reductionist – a lot of my research shows that things that we think of as complicated could be learnt through simple reinforcement (I’m a kinda lowkey behaviourist). But, I know that in the “real world” things are a lot more complicated than that so we definitely need people to be looking at things in a holistic way.
