What is the meaning of the term "genetic" as it relates to psychology?

  1. Behavioral principles that guide decision-making

  2. Biological and evolutionary influences on behavior

  3. Theory of operating systems

  4. Cognitive processes involved in learning

The correct answer is: Biological and evolutionary influences on behavior

Genetics in psychology refers to the biological and evolutionary factors that influence behavior. This includes factors such as genetics, heredity, and evolution, all of which can impact a person's psychological makeup and behavior. Option A, behavioral principles, does not encompass the biological and evolutionary aspects of genetics. Option C, theory of operating systems, is not related to genetics at all. Option D, cognitive processes, is also not directly linked to genetics as it focuses on learning. Therefore, the most accurate answer is B, as it is the only option that directly relates to genetics in psychology.
