Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Incremental theorists believe that a person's behavior is not fixed and can change through effort and experience. Entity theorists, on the other hand, believe that behavior and characteristics are fixed and cannot be changed easily. Social learning theorists, conditioning theorists, and operant theorists focus on different mechanisms for behavior change but do not necessarily believe in the malleability of behavior as a fundamental assumption.
