Social Learning Theory

1. 1Social Learning Theory is a method of social learning, particularly in children that involves a[blank_start]ttention[blank_end], r[blank_start]etention[blank_end], r[blank_start]eproduction[blank_end], m[blank_start]otivation[blank_end] and r[blank_start]einforcement[blank_end].

   5. Eeinforcement
2. 2[blank_start]Modelling[blank_end] is when a person copies the behaviour or attitude demonstrated by another person.

3. 3Who invented social learning theory?

   1. ABandura (1977)
   2. BSkinner (1937)
   3. CBandura (1937)
   4. DSkinner (1977)
4. 4[blank_start]ATTENTION[blank_end]
   must be paid to the model’s behaviour and its consequences.
   This is a cognitive aspect of observational learning.
   can be influenced by: p[blank_start]erception[blank_end], cognitive ability, a[blank_start]rousal[blank_end] level, how much the learner likes the model and wants to be like them.
   

   1. AATTENTION
   2. Berception
   3. Crousal
5. 5[blank_start]Retention[blank_end] - the learnt behaviour must be stored in the memory as a mental representation (understood and be able to be retrieved later).
   

   1. ARetention
6. 6[blank_start]Reproduction[blank_end] - the learner does not perform the behaviour yet
   the learner must have the physical and intellectual ability to convert the mental representations into actions.
   

   1. AReproduction
7. 7[blank_start]Motivation[blank_end] - the learner must want to imitate the behaviour.
   this will depend on whether there is a desirable consequence (reinforcement) for producing it.
   

   1. AMotivation
8. 8[blank_start]Reinforcement[blank_end] - Influences the likelihood that a learner will imitate an observed model’s behaviour.
   A positive outcome means the learner will repeat the behaviour when again motivated to do so.
   Can come from:
   the model (praises the learner)
   a third person praises the learner
   the learner themselves are satisfied
   

   1. AReinforcement
9. 9[blank_start]Vicarious[blank_end] reinforcement – a theory that individuals are more likely to engage in a behaviour or activity if they witness another individual being rewarded for that activity or behaviour.
   

   1. AVicarious
10. 10Vicarious reinforcement:
    [blank_start]Positive[blank_end]: we are more likely to engage in a behaviour if we see someone being rewarded for that behaviour.
    [blank_start]Negative[blank_end]: we are less likely to engage in a behaviour if we see someone being punished for that behaviour.
    

    1. APositive
    2. BNegative

11. 11[blank_start]Observational[blank_end] learning means that role models (both fictional and real) are powerful sources of influence on the behaviour of others, especially children.
