Q

Social Learning theory

A

learning principles applied to important real life social behaviors, personality is learned and cognition matters

21
Q

Imitation

A

reproduction or performance of an act that is stimulated by the perception of a similar act by another animal or person

22
Q

Modeling

A

demonstrating behaviors that can imitated by others

23
Q

observational learning

A

acquiring new skills or information or altering old behaviors by watching modeled behaviors of others

24
Q

Vicarious learning

A

learning from the behaviors and associated consequences of those behaviors observed in others

25
Q

Vicarious reinforcement

A

humans reproduce behaviors they have observed others perform that led to a positive outcome/consequence

26
Q

Vicarious punishment

A

humans avoid behaviors they have observed others perform that led to a negative outcome/consequence

27
Q

socialization

A

process by which society attempts to teach children to behave like “ideal” adults

28
Q

Socialization process

A

modeling and imitation

29
Q

Results from observational learning

A

specific skills and general behavioral styles

30
Q

Implications for the teacher Clinician

A

people learn from observing others, learning can occur in absence of observable behavior, expectations drive behavior, causation is reciprocal

31
Q

Q

3 aspects of attention

ability to focus on certain things in a stimuli that are important

42
Q

concentration
