About Social Cognitive Theory
• An outgrowth of behaviorism !"
• Retained focus on learning but broadened the notion by including social context and observational learning !"
• Albert Bandura as primary spokesperson!
About Social Learning Theory
• Took some of the emphasis off of reinforcement as a requirement for learning"
• Cognition mediates behavior"• Major terms: Observational learning,
modeling, vicarious learning, self-efficacy, & reciprocal determinism!

Social Cognitive Theory
Observational Learning
Vicarious Learning
Learning from other successes or failures/observing other being reinforced or punished
Modeling/Imitation
Watching someone else perform a skill/copying someone’s behavior

3 Explanations for Modeling
Perceived similarity ♦ A girl is more likely to imitate the behavior of a female chemistry teacher than the behaviors of a male chemistry teacher.
♦ Children who observed peers successfully solve problems solved more problems than children who observed adults successfully solve problems.
3 Explanations for Modeling
Perceived competence
♦ A person imitates the behavior of a successful instead of a less successful peer.

3 Explanations for Modeling
Perceived status ♦ Young people wear Reeboks because professional athletes endorse them.
♦ A student imitates the behavior of a popular peer.
The potential effects on children of viewing T.V. violence has been a long-standing controversy.In an attempt to resolve the controversy Bandura (1963) assigned nursery school children to one of five treatments. 1st - children watched a human adult model verbally and physically attack a life-sized inflated doll. 2nd - children saw a film of the same behavior. 3rd - they saw cartoon characters carry out the same aggressive actions. 4th - which was the control group, saw no behavior displayed. 5th - the children saw a live model who displayed subdued and inhibited behavior.

The children were then placed in situations similar to those observed. The researchers watched the children through one-way mirrors and counted the children’s aggressive acts. The children who observed aggressive behavior -- live, on film, and in cartoons -- all displayed significantly more aggressive behaviors than did the control group, and the children who observed the subdued model displayed significantly fewer aggressive behaviors than did the control group.
