Study Notes
Social Learning Theory
- Albert Bandura is recognized as the originator of social learning theory.
Ivan Pavlov's Experiments
- Ivan Pavlov focused on classical conditioning in his experiments.
- Pavlov's experiments with dogs demonstrated the association between a neutral stimulus (bell) and an unconditioned stimulus (food) to elicit an unconditioned response (salivation).
- Pavlov used a bell to condition the dogs to salivate in response to the sound, along with the presentation of food.
Observational Learning
- Observational learning refers to the process of learning new behaviors by observing and imitating others.
Environment-Behavior Connections
- Bandura believed that cognitive processes, such as attention, retention, and motivation, are important mediators of environment-behavior connections.
