Imitation

A

Observing a behaviour and copying it

23
Q

SOCIAL LEARNING THEORIES
Identification

A

Only imitate role models

24
Q

SOCIAL LEARNING THEORIES
Modelling

A

Imitation is modelling the behaviour

25
Q

SOCIAL LEARNING THEORIE
Vicarious reinforcement

If observer sees model being rewarded behaviour is more likely to repeat

26
Q

SOCIAL LEARNING THEORIES

A

Behaviour needs to grab our attention

Memory of behaviour is formed to be performed later

28
Q

SOCIAL LEARNING THEORIES

Seeing how well u do at a behaviour

31

Q

ACQUISITION OF PHOBIAS
Classical conditioning

A

Phobia is created if associated with fearful or unpleasant experience

33
Q

ACQUISITION OF PHOBIAS
Operant conditioning

A

Phobia is created by experiencing a positive punishment

34
Q

ACQUISITION OF PHOBIAS
Social learning theory

A

Phobia is created by learning thru observation and imitation of role models
