Why does all of

this matter?

This all is important because it shows

that children do learn from observation,

but it also shows other factors of learning

like whether the child is mentally fit to learn or if they are receiving enough positive or negative reinforcement to be motivated into learning.

Bandura has received more than sixteen honorary degrees, including,

-From the University of British Columbia

-Alfred University

-The University of Rome

-The University of Lethbridge,

-The University of Salamanca in Spain

Theory of Social Learning

In the experiment, you see an adult acting

violently toward the doll. Later it shows a child

simply imitating said violence. Monkey see. . .Monkey

do.

The BoBo Doll Experiment

What is Bandura's Social Learning Theory?

There are three core concepts at

the root of social learning theory

1.) People can learn through observation

Bandura conducted a BoBo doll experiment in which he

had children observe an adult acting violently. Later in

the experiment, he allowed the children to be alone with

said BoBo doll. There the children imitated the adult's

aggressive actions toward the doll.

Moral agency

FUN FACT:

Bandura's love for psychology was discovered

completely by accident.

He had started out as a biological science major, but he got to school too early and to pass the time he took a filler class, there he fell in love with psychology.

Social Cognitive Theory

He explained:

December 4, 1925

By the mid-1980s, Bandura's research had taken a more holistic bent, and his analyses tended towards giving a more comprehensive overview of human cognition in the context of social learning. The theory he expanded from social learning theory soon became known as social cognitive theory.

" One morning, I was wasting time in the

library. Someone had forgotten to return a

course catalog and I thumbed through it

attempting to find a filler course to occupy the

early time slot. I noticed a course in

psychology that would serve an excellent

filler. It sparked my interest and I found

my career."

Social foundations of thought and action

He advanced concepts of triadic reciprocality, which determined the connections between human behavior, environmental factors, and personal factors such as cognitive, affective, and biological events, and of reciprocal determinism, governing the causal relations between such factors.

Bandura was born in a small

canadian town located approximately

50 miles from Edmonton. There he

grew up.

Albert Bandura

Post High School

Bandura's emphasis on the capacity of agents to self-organize and self-regulate would eventually give rise to his later work on self-efficacy.

After high school, Bandura enrolled at the University of British Colombia.

Self-efficacy

While investigating the processes by which modeling alleviates phobic disorders in snake-phobics, he found that self-efficacy beliefs (which the phobic individuals had in their own capabilities to alleviate their phobia) mediated changes in behavior and in fear-arousal. .

Bandura applied his human agentic view via social cognitive theory for the personal and social aspects of control over moral values and conduct. In particular, he states that in the social cognitive theory of the moral self, moral reasoning is linked to moral action through affective self-regulatory mechanisms by which moral agency is exercised.

However these self-regulatory mechanisms have to be activated psychosocially. Bandura found interest in the role that human agency plays when a society does not have safeguards set against particular lapses in moral judgment that an individual finds justification, morally or otherwise.

The greatest theorist

First, all people are capable of two morally agentic abilities, to act humanely and to not act inhumanely. Selective moral disengagement occurs when a person actively disengages their self-regulating efficacy for moral conduct.
