Social Learning Theory
- vicarious reinforcement
- learning by imitation, seeing another get rewarded
or punished for behaviour will increase the
likelihood they will imitate or avoid this behaviour

or punished for behaviour will increase the

- identification
- if you identify with a person in ways such as ethnicity,
sex, age you are more likely to imitate their behaviour as
they act as a role model

- meditational processes
- 4.motivation
- when weighing up the rewards and costs the
behaviour must be worth repeating and be
motivated to do it

- 3.motor reproduction
- they must be physically able to repeat
the behaviour eg. may require hard
skill

- 2.retention
- behaviour must stay in their
mind so they have a memory
to refer to

- 1.attention
- behaviour has to catch their attention

- 4.motivation
- evaluation
- research support from Bandura's bobo doll experiment, had kids observe an adult be
aggressive or not towards a doll then watched the kids behaviour with the doll after.
Kids watching aggressive condition imitated this behaviour and more so when the
adult was their sex (identification)
- Bandura's experiment had ethical issues by teaching
kids to be aggressive, doesn't protect them from psychological harm
- studies like this no longer allowed to take place, so a lack of testing of the slt
makes it hard to establish scientific credibility due to lack of falsifiability
- studies like this no longer allowed to take place, so a lack of testing of the slt

- doesn't explain why kids would be aggressive
without a model, Bandura and Walters group with
no reward/punishment were inbetween high and
low levels of aggression
- Unlike operant conditioning theory, explains aggressive behaviour in the absence
of direct reinforcement. Bandura's (1963) participants behaved more aggressively after
observing an aggressive model, at no point were the children directly rewarded for any
action, either aggressive or non-aggressive. Vicarious learning necessary to explain
these findings.
