Resource summary
Bandura AO1
Aim
To see if behaviours learnt by children by imitation in one setting could be repeated in a different setting even when adult model is not present
Hypothesis
1. Children exposed to an aggressive model will reproduce the aggressive act of the model
2. Children exposed to a non-aggressive model will inhibit aggressive behaviour
3. Children will imitate same-sex models more than opposite-sex model
4. Boys will imitate more aggressive behaviour than girls
Method
Lab. exp.
Design
Matched pairs
Nursery teacher and experimenter who knew the children well rated them in a 5 point scale for aggression
0.89 inter-rate reliability

e.g. sitting on it, saying "Pow!" "He sure is a tough fella"
Non-aggressive cond:
Model plays with the tinker toy set in a subdued manner
Stage 2: Aggression arousal
Children taken to a different room to play with some attractive toys e.g. airplanes
After 2 mins, experimenter claimed toys were for special children, but told them there were toys in other room that they could play with
Stage 3: Test for delayed imitation (20 mins)
Room contained a selection of aggressive and non-aggressive toys e.g. dart guns and paper and crayons
Experimenter stayed in the room. Researcher and model observed through one way mirror (every 5 secs)
Looking for: Imitated aggression. Partially imitated aggression. Non-imitated aggression
Inter-rater reliability 0.9
Results

Children observing non-aggressive model showed few aggeressive acts
