The change in morphology and behavior of a mature or immature B cell resulting from exposure to a mitogen, cytokine, chemokine, cellular ligand, or an antigen for which it is specific. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of B cell activation. A change in morphology and behavior of a lymphocyte resulting from exposure to a specific antigen, mitogen, cytokine, chemokine, cellular ligand, or soluble factor. Any process that activates or increases the rate or extent of B cell proliferation. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of lymphocyte activation. The process of providing, via surface-bound receptor-ligand pairs, a second, antigen-independent, signal in addition to that provided by the B cell receptor to augment B cell activation. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of B cell differentiation. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of B cell activation. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of isotype switching. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of leukocyte activation. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of lymphocyte activation.
