Understanding Nonanticipatory Behavior: What It Means and Examples

Nonanticipatory refers to something that does not anticipate or expect something else to happen. In other words, it is something that is not expected or planned for in advance.

For example, if a person is not expecting a certain event to occur, their reaction to that event would be considered nonanticipatory. Similarly, if a company is not planning for a potential change in the market, their response to that change would be considered nonanticipatory.

In contrast, anticipatory behavior is when someone or something prepares for or expects a future event. For example, if a person is expecting a certain event to occur and has prepared for it, their behavior would be considered anticipatory.
