Study Notes
Triadic Reciprocal Causation Model
- Observation is a key component of the triadic reciprocal causation model.
- Individuals must attend to models before they can imitate their behavior.
Self-Efficacy
- Self-efficacy refers to people's shared beliefs in their ability to bring about change.
- It is the foundation of human agency, allowing individuals to regulate their behavior.
- Self-efficacy is the belief in one's ability to control events and outcomes.
Observational Learning
- Observation can lead to new response patterns if individuals attend to models and are motivated to learn.
- Imitation is a process that greatly speeds up the learning process within observational learning.
Regulation of Behavior
- Forethought is necessary for individuals to transform transitory events into consistent ways of evaluating and regulating their social environments.
- Self-regulation is enabled by self-efficacy, which allows individuals to regulate their behavior.
- Self-reflection is key to the ongoing exercise of self-influence, but not an internal requirement.
Fear and Aggression
- Television and other media can generate fears by exposing individuals to frightening situations.
- Aggressive behavior can be acquired through observation and imitation of aggressive models.
- Phobias are described as fears that are irrational and excessive.
Learning and Human Agency
- Bandura suggests that there are two major types of learning for acquiring new behaviors: observational learning and direct conditioning.
- Human action is a result of an interaction among three variables: behavior, personal factors, and environmental factors.
- The triadic reciprocal causation model explains how behavior, personal factors, and environmental factors interact to influence psychological functioning.
