An anticipatory behavior is a behavior that ‘uses’ the future in its actual decision process.

Project

Anticipation. How Individuals and Communities Use the Future

The future is incorporated into all phenomena, conscious or unconscious, physical or ideational, as anticipation, from those forms of anticipation that are observed, for instance, in a tree that loses its leaves in the Autumn to human planning that colonizes the future inspired by imaginary futures.
