Answer:

Psychoanalysis studies the subconscious while behaviorism studies the conduct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Psychoanalysis attaches a decisive importance to the permanence in the subconscious of the instinctive impulses repressed by consciousness whereas behaviorism is based on the observation of the conduct of the being being being studied. It explains the set of relationships between stimuli and responses that the being receives.
