    Study Notes

    Reinforcement

    • Reinforcers are responses from the environment that increase the probability of a behavior being repeated.
    • There are two types of reinforcers: positive and negative.
    • Positive reinforcers involve the presentation of a rewarding stimulus.
    • Negative reinforcers involve the termination of an unpleasant state following a response.

    Punishment

    • Punishment is a response from the environment that decreases the likelihood of a behavior being repeated.
    • Punishment weakens behavior.

    Social Learning Theory

    • Albert Bandura proposed that direct reinforcement cannot account for all types of learning.
    • Social learning theory involves learning through observation, imitation, and modeling.
    • Core concepts of social learning theory include:
      • People can learn through observation.
      • Mental states are important to learning.
      • Learning does not necessarily lead to behavioral change.

    Observational Learning

    • There are three basic models of observational learning:
      • Live model: an actual individual demonstrating a behavior.
      • Symbolic model: real or fictional characters displaying behaviors in media.
      • Verbal instructional model: descriptions and explanations of a behavior.

    Values Clarification

    • Values clarification is a process or approach used to help individuals identify, understand, and prioritize their personal values.
    • It involves engaging in activities, discussions, and reflections to explore beliefs, principles, and priorities.
    • Key factors for social learning success include:
      • Attention: paying attention to the model.
      • Retention: storing information.
      • Reproduction: performing the behavior.
      • Motivation: being motivated to imitate the behavior.

    Strategies for Social Learning

    • There are five strategies for social learning:
      • Incorporating values into the existing curriculum.
      • Value-inclucation through co-curricular activities.
      • Development of value-consciousness through story.
      • Inclucation of values through discussion on slogans.
      • Inclucation of values through games.

    Value Clarification Strategies

    • Value clarification strategies emphasize either affective or cognitive processes.
    • Affective processes involve empathy and emotional development.
    • Cognitive processes involve thinking, analyzing, and decision making.
    • Clarification strategies include:
      • Identifying and defining problems.
      • Analyzing the problem.
      • Making a stand or taking a position.
      • Classifying and comparing alternative positions.
      • Testing and defending the position.
      • Reflecting on the position and application of decisions.

    Theoretical Basis

    • Value analysis approach emphasizes the analysis of problem decision-making situations.
    • Value-inquiry model involves identifying key concepts, recognizing values, identifying facts, and predicting consequences.
    • Cognitive processes in value-inquiry model include:
      • Defining, stating, defending, explaining, generalizing, predicting, analyzing, comparing, testing, selecting, and summarizing.
    • Affective processes in value-inquiry model include:
      • Describing, identifying, qualifying, differentiating, feeling, being aware, receiving, responding, and valuing.
