Behaviorist?

These behaviorist notions were used by some theorists to develop what has come to be known as magic bullet theory, the idea that propaganda can be powerful enough to penetrate most people's defenses and condition them to act in ways useful to the propagandist. As we shall see, most propaganda theorists rejected such ideas as too simplistic.
Do you mean something like 'magic bullet theory'?
