Study Notes
Social Learning Theory
- Albert Bandura's work is the foundation of social learning theory, which considers personal characteristics, behavior patterns, and the environment.
- The learner is viewed as central, emphasizing their role as a "human agency".
- The theory has four phases:
- Attentional phase: necessary for learning to occur
- Retention phase: storage and retrieval of observed behavior
- Reproduction phase: copying observed behavior
- Motivational phase: determining whether the learner is motivated to perform a certain behavior
- Role modeling is a central concept, requiring models to be enthusiastic, organized, caring, confident, knowledgeable, skilled, and good communicators.
- Vicarious reinforcement involves determining whether role models are rewarded or punished for their behavior, influencing learning.
Applications of Social Learning Theory
- Applied extensively to understanding aggression and psychological disorders, particularly in behavior modification.
- Theoretical foundation for behavior modeling, widely used in training programs.
- Focused on self-efficacy in various contexts.
Psychodynamic Learning Theory
- Based on the work of Sigmund Freud, emphasizing emotions rather than cognition or responses.
- Motivational theory considering conscious and unconscious forces, personality conflict, and childhood experiences' effects on adult behavior.
- The id is the primitive source of motivation, based on libidinal energy (basic instincts, impulses, and desires).
Psychodynamic Theory: Topographic Model
- Freud compared the mind to an iceberg, with only about one-tenth being conscious and the rest being unconscious.
- Unconscious refers to inaccessible mental activity, with unacceptable urges and desires repressed.
- Examples of unconscious desires include Freudian slips, which are speech errors revealing repressed thoughts and desires.
Psychodynamic Theory: Structural Model
- Personality develops from a conflict between biological drives and internal control.
- The mind consists of three interacting systems: id, ego, and superego.
- The id contains primitive drives, operating on the pleasure principle, seeking immediate gratification.
- The superego develops through socialization, acting as the conscience, and guiding behavior.
- The ego is the rational part of the personality, balancing id and superego demands in the context of reality.
Psychodynamic Theory: Defense Mechanism
- Not explicitly explained in the provided text.
Psychodynamic Theory: Psychosexual Development
- Personality development occurs in stages, with eight stages of life organized around a psychosocial crisis to be resolved at each stage, according to Erikson's model.
- Determining the stage of personality development is essential in healthcare.
Humanistic Theory
- Carl Rogers believed humans have one basic motive: self-actualization (fulfilling one's potential and achieving the highest level of human-beingness).
- An optimistic approach to human development and nature, contrasting Freud's approach.
- Client-centered therapy provides a healthy and encouraging environment, validating individuals to grow themselves.
Humanistic Learning Theory
- Every individual is unique and has a desire to grow in a positive way.
- Emotions, feelings, and individual choices are essential, with human creativity being the cornerstone of humanistic approach to learning.
- Abraham Maslow is a major contributor to humanistic theory.
Social Learning Theory
- Social learning theory is based on the work of Albert Bandura, who emphasized behaviorist features and the imitation of role models.
- The learner is viewed as central, with personal characteristics, behavior patterns, and the environment considered.
- Key principles of social learning theory include:
- Attentional phase: a necessary condition for any learning to occur.
- Retention phase: storage and retrieval of what was observed.
- Reproduction phase: copying the observed behavior.
- Motivational phase: whether the learner is motivated to perform a certain type of behavior.
- Role Modeling is a central concept of social learning theory, with effective role models being enthusiastic, professionally organized, caring, self-confident, knowledgeable, skilled, and good communicators.
- Vicarious reinforcement involves determining whether role models are perceived as rewarded or punished for their behavior.
- Social learning theory has been applied extensively to understanding aggression and psychological disorders, particularly in the context of behavior modification.
Psychodynamic Learning Theory
- Psychodynamic learning theory is based on the work of Sigmund Freud and emphasizes emotions rather than cognition or responses.
- It highlights the importance of conscious and unconscious forces in guiding behavior, personality conflict, and the enduring effects of childhood experiences on adult behavior.
- The most primitive source of motivation comes from the id and is based on libidinal energy (basic instincts, impulses, and desires).
- Freud compared the mind to an iceberg, with only about one-tenth being conscious and the rest being unconscious.
Psychodynamic Theory: Topographic Model
- The topographic model explains conscious versus unconscious experience, with Freud suggesting that unacceptable urges and desires are kept in our unconscious through repression.
- Slips of the tongue (e.g., Freudian slips) are seen as a reflection of unconscious desires, often occurring when we are tired, nervous, or not at our optimal level of cognitive functioning.
Psychodynamic Theory: Structural Model
- The structural model suggests that our personality develops from a conflict between two forces: our biological aggressive and pleasure-seeking drives versus our internal (socialized) control over these drives.
- Our personality is the result of our efforts to balance these two competing forces, with three interacting systems within our minds: the id, ego, and superego.
- The id contains our most primitive drives or urges, operating on the "pleasure principle" and seeking immediate gratification.
- The superego develops as we learn social rules and acts as our conscience, guiding our moral behavior.
- The ego is the rational part of our personality, balancing the demands of the id and superego in the context of reality and operating on the "reality principle."
Psychodynamic Theory: Defense Mechanism
- Defense mechanisms are used to cope with the anxiety or stress caused by the conflict between the id, ego, and superego.
Psychodynamic Theory: Psychosexual Development
- Psychosexual development occurs in stages, with eight stages of life organized around a psychosocial crisis to be resolved at each stage, as proposed by Erikson (1968).
- Determining the stage of personality development is essential in healthcare when designing and carrying out treatment regimens, communication, and health education.
Humanistic Theory
- Humanistic theory, developed by Carl Rogers, believes that humans have one basic motive: the tendency to self-actualize (fulfill one's potential and achieve the highest level of human-beingness).
- This approach contrasts with Freud's, but agrees with Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.
- Client-centered therapy provides a healthy and encouraging environment, with validation, acceptance, and empathy essential for a person to grow and self-actualize.
