✦ Synopsis

This paper addresses Blau's critique of our early research on behavioral aggregates; we review the theoretical and empirical work on multiple behaviors. We address the de®nition and measurement of behavioral aggregates, the issue of common method variance, and factors in¯uencing behavior choices. Research from other behavioral areas that uses an approach similar to ours is reviewed as well as relevant research on withdrawal aggregates since 1991. We argue that a focus on general withdrawal constructs rather than individual behaviors will generate signi®cant scienti®c and practical advantages. The study of constructs will likely provide a basis for generalizations across situations, populations, and time.
