Social learning theory of aggression AO1
- Suggested by Bandura et al
- Aggression is a learnt behavior
- may be learnt through indirect reinforcement or indirect reinforcement
- or through vicarious learning in which a child imitates the behavior of a role model
- a role model is someone that the child can identify with
- when the behavior has been observed, the child mentally represents the behavior including the likely consequences
- If the adult was rewarded for their aggressive behavior, a child may chose to imitate it at the appropriate time due to the associated rewards
- Process of learning has been suggested to be split into 4:
- 1-Attention as individuals attend to significant features of behavior
- 2-Retention: the individual then encodes this behavior so it stays in long term memory
- 3-Motor reproduction: the person must have the physical capabilities to imitate behavior
- 4-Motivation: The person must be motivated to do this behavior as they will only likely imitate aggression if they expect a reward
- Bandura still said that you could have a genetic predisposition to aggression making aggression more likely, but to actually carry it out aggression must first be learnt
