Combative behavior refers to an aggressive or confrontational manner of interacting with others. It often involves arguments, verbal attacks, or physical aggression as a means of addressing conflicts or asserting dominance. It can be disruptive to relationships and may indicate underlying issues such as anger, insecurity, or a lack of effective communication skills.
The five types of behavior are innate behavior (instinct), learned behavior (conditioning), social behavior (interactions with others), emotional behavior (expressions of feelings), and adaptive behavior (adjusting to the environment).
Human behavior can be classified into different categories such as cognitive behavior (related to thoughts and mental processes), emotional behavior (related to feelings and expressions), social behavior (related to interactions with others), and instinctual behavior (related to innate reflexes and survival mechanisms). These categories help us understand the complexities of human behavior across various dimensions.

The elements of behavior include antecedents (events that precede a behavior), the behavior itself, and consequences (results of the behavior). These elements interact in the ABC model of behavior: Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence. Understanding these elements can help in modifying and shaping behavior.
