The problem with logical behaviorism was that it failed to account for causation between mental states and such causation seems to be essential to psychological explanation, especially if one considers that behavior is not an effect of a single mental event/cause but is rather the effect of a chain of mental events/causes.
逻辑行为主义的问题是它无法解释心理状态之间的因果关系，并且这样的因果关系对于心理学说明似乎是必不可少的，特别是如果一个人认为行为并不是单个心理事件/原因的效果，而却是一连串心理事件/原因的效果。
