In her science class, the students could not seem to follow the neatly printed directions on the white board, nor did the color-coordinated handouts seem to make any difference. She had run around the room trying to respond to the different groups attempting the science project but there was a great deal of confusion. It was one of those days where she questioned her career choice- was she really cut out to be a teacher? After a good night\u2019s sleep and coaching from a colleague, Ms. Mitchell was determined to try a different approach and model every step of the process. After she modeled each section, students seemed to get it quickly. \u00a0Following some verbal encouragement from Ms. Mitchell, there was soon a happy buzz in the classroom as students engaged with each other in the steps of the science project. Ms. Mitchell was even able to rest her feet, drink her herbal tea and consider what a difference these simple strategies made.<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c24\">What changes did Ms. Mitchell make? How did modeling the activity change the end result and facilitate their learning? How did her positive remarks reinforce their confidence with the tasks? How did group work also build engagement? As you read through this chapter, consider the power of observation and how learning occurs in a social context with a dynamic and reciprocal interaction of the person, environment, and behavior.<\/span><\/p>\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LdbjLmlcwhU\n<h6><span style=\"color: #000000\">Video 3.1 - Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/h6>\n<h2 id=\"h.hnoj9sf1vy5\" class=\"c5 c18\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Introduction<\/span><\/h2>\n<h6 class=\"c5 c18\" style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 234.00px;height: 215.00px\"><img class=\"alignnone\" style=\"width: 234.00px;height: 215.00px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image7-2.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/span><span class=\"c0\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.2<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c0\">Albert Bandura (1925-2021) was born in Mundare, Alberta, Canada, the youngest of six children. Both of his parents were immigrants from Eastern Europe. Bandura's father worked as a track layer for the Trans-Canada railroad while his mother worked in a general store before they were able to buy some land and become farmers. Though times were often hard growing up, Bandura's parents placed great emphasis on celebrating life and more importantly family. They were also very keen on their children doing well in school. Mundare had only one school at the time so Bandura did all of his schooling in one place.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c0\">Bandura attended the University of British Columbia and graduated three years later in 1949 with the Bolocan Award in psychology. Bandura then went to the University of Iowa to complete his graduate work. At the time, the University of Iowa was central to psychological study, especially in the area of social learning theory. By 1952, Bandura completed his Master's and Ph.D. in clinical psychology. Bandura worked at the Wichita Guidance Center before accepting a position as a faculty member at Stanford University in 1953. Bandura has studied many different topics over the years, including aggression in adolescents (more specifically he was interested in aggression in boys who came from intact middle-class families), children's abilities to self-regulate and self-reflect, and of course self-efficacy (a person's perception and beliefs about their ability to produce effects, or influence events that concern their lives).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">Bandura is perhaps most famous for his <\/span><span class=\"c1\">Bobo Doll <\/span><span class=\"c1\">experiments<\/span><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0in the 1960s. At the time there was a popular belief that learning was a result of reinforcement. In the Bobo Doll experiments, Bandura presented children with social models of novel (new) violent behavior or non-violent behavior towards the inflatable rebounding Bobo Doll. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 601.50px;height: 340.70px\"><img class=\"\" style=\"width: 761px;height: 432px;margin-left: 0px;margin-top: 0px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image10.png\" alt=\"\"><\/span><span class=\"c25 c9\"><a class=\"c8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/Bobo_Doll_Deneyi.jpg?fit%3D499%252C283%26ssl%3D1&amp;sa=D&amp;source=editors&amp;ust=1668984102061245&amp;usg=AOvVaw3va3tsrxo-Vc9YcDrKyosf\">https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/Bobo_Doll_Deneyi.jpg?fit=499%2C283&amp;ssl=1<\/a>\n<\/span><\/p>\n\n<h6><span style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.3<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">Children who viewed the violent behavior were in turn violent towards the doll; the control group was rarely violent towards the doll. That became Bandura's social learning theory in the 1960s. <\/span><span class=\"c1\">Social learning theory focuses on what people learn from observing and interacting with other people. <\/span><span class=\"c9\">It is often called a bridge between behaviorist and cognitive learning theories because it encompasses attention, memory, and motivation. Bandura went on to expand motivational and cognitive processes on social learning theory. In 1986, Bandura published his second book <\/span><span class=\"c2\">Social Foundations of Thought and Action: A Social Cognitive Theory, <\/span><span class=\"c9\">in which he renamed his original social learning theory to be social cognitive theory. Social cognitive theory claims that <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">learning occurs in a social context with a dynamic and reciprocal interaction of the person, environment, and behavior.<\/span>\n<span class=\"c9\">\u00a0<\/span>\n<span class=\"c9 c33\"><strong>Social Cognitive Theory<\/strong> posits that people are not simply shaped by that environment; they are active participants in their environment. <\/span><span class=\"c0\">Bandura is highly recognized for his work on social learning theory and social cognitive theory. <\/span><span class=\"c9\">Social learning is also commonly referred to as <\/span><span class=\"c1\">observational learning<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, because it comes about as a result of observing others. Bandura became interested in social aspects of learning at the beginning of his career. <\/span><span class=\"c1\">Social learning theory <\/span><span class=\"c9\">emphasizes that <\/span><span class=\"c1\">behavior<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, <\/span><span class=\"c1\">personal factors<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, and <\/span><span class=\"c1\">environmental factors <\/span><span class=\"c0\">are all equal, interlocking determinants of each other (Bandura, 1973, 1977a; Figure 3.1).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">Bandura proposed the idea of <\/span><span class=\"c1\">reciprocal determinism<\/span><span class=\"c0\">, in which our behavior, personal factors, and environmental factors all influence each other.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<h6 class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c0\" style=\"color: #000000\">Figure 3.1 Reciprocal Determinism<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 519.40px;height: 274.27px\"><img class=\"alignleft\" style=\"width: 519.40px;height: 274.27px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image8.jpg\" alt=\"A flowchart showing reciprocal determinism.

He called the new theory Social Cognitive Theory (SCT). Bandura changed the name <em>Social Learning Theory <\/em>to <em>Social Cognitive Theory <\/em>to emphasize the major role cognition plays in encoding and performing behaviors. In this book,\u00a0 <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Bandura (1986) argued that human behavior is caused by personal, behavioral, and environmental influences. <\/span><span class=\"c0\">Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) holds that portions of an individual's knowledge acquisition can be directly related to observing others within the context of social interactions, experiences, and outside media influences. The theory states that when people observe a model performing a behavior and the consequences of that behavior, they remember the sequence of events and use this information to guide subsequent behaviors. Observing a model can also prompt the viewer to engage in behavior they already learned (Bandura, 1986, 2002). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c0\">In other words, people do not learn new behaviors solely by trying them and either succeeding or failing, but rather, the survival of humanity is dependent upon the replication of the actions of others. Depending on whether people are rewarded or punished for their behavior and the outcome of the behavior, the observer may choose to replicate behavior modeled. Media provides models for a vast array of people in many different environmental settings. <\/span><\/p>\n<span class=\"c0\"><strong>Social Cognitive Theory (SCT)<\/strong> is a learning theory based on the idea that people learn by observing others. Consider the power of social media today in terms of influence and education. When people want to know something, they turn to Google, Youtube, and Pinterest to see how others do it.<\/span>\n<ul class=\"c23 lst-kix_ov1ioysytc0s-0 start\">\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Learned behaviors can be central to one's personality. While social psychologists agree that the environment one grows up in contributes to behavior, the individual person (and the way they process\/ their cognition) is just as important. <\/span><\/li>\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c9\">People learn by observing others, with <\/span><span class=\"c1\">the environment<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, <\/span><span class=\"c1\">behavior<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, and <\/span><span class=\"c1\">cognition <\/span><span class=\"c9\">all as the chief factors in influencing development in a <\/span><span class=\"c1\">reciprocal triadic relationship <\/span><span class=\"c0\">(illustrated above in figure 3.1). For example, each behavior witnessed can change a person's way of thinking (cognition). Similarly, the environment one is raised in may influence later behaviors.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"c4 c12\"><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 369.33px;height: 193.50px\"><img class=\"alignright\" style=\"width: 369.33px;height: 193.50px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image3-3.png\" alt=\"\">\n<\/span><\/p>\n\n<h6 class=\"c21\" style=\"text-align: right\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.3<\/span><\/h6>\n<h2 class=\"c4\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Human Capability<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">Evolving over time, human beings are featured with advanced neutral systems, which enable individuals to acquire knowledge and skills by both direct and symbolic terms (Bandura, 2002). Four primary capabilities are addressed as important foundations of social cognitive theory: <\/span><span class=\"c3 c1\"><strong>symbolizing capability<\/strong>, <strong>self-regulation capability<\/strong>, <strong>self-reflective capability,<\/strong> and <strong>vicarious capability<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c9\">1. <\/span><strong><span class=\"c1\">Symbolizing Capability<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c9\"><strong>:<\/strong> People are affected not only by direct experience but also indirect events. Instead of merely learning through trial-and-error processes, human beings are able to symbolically perceive events conveyed in messages, construct possible solutions, and evaluate the anticipated outcomes. <\/span>\n<em><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Example: People read to learn about history, and can use past events to consider current events.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">2. <\/span><strong><span class=\"c1\">Self-regulation Capability<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c9\"><strong>:<\/strong> Individuals can regulate their own intentions and behaviors by themselves. Self-regulation <\/span>\n<span class=\"c1\">relies <\/span><span class=\"c9\">on both negative and positive feedback systems, in which discrepancy reduction and discrepancy production are involved. That is, individuals proactively motivate and guide their actions by setting challenging goals and then making an effort to fulfill them. In doing so, individuals gain skills, resources, and self-efficacy. <\/span>\n<em><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Example: People are able to develop goals and work plans to make progress toward long term projects, such as Pursuing a Bachelor's degree or building a garden shed in their backyard.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c9\">3. <\/span><strong><span class=\"c1\">Self-reflective Capability<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c9\">: \u00a0Individuals can evaluate their thoughts and actions by themselves, which is identified as another distinct feature of human beings. By verifying the adequacy and soundness of their thoughts through enactive, various, social, or logical manner, individuals can generate new ideas, adjust their thoughts, and take actions accordingly. <\/span>\n<em><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Example: People are able to vote on local ballot measures by reading all the voting literature and making educated assessments and decisions.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c9\">4. <\/span><strong><span class=\"c1\">Vicarious Capability<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c9\"><strong>:<\/strong> Individuals <\/span><span class=\"c32 c11 c9\">can adopt skills and knowledge through observation of others' actions and consequences, which also helps them gain insight into their own activities. From a study in 2002, Bandura concluded that much of the information encountered in our lives derives from mass media rather than a trial-and-error process (Bandura, 2002). <\/span>\n<em><span class=\"c2 c7\">Example: People learn a great deal from current media (Google, Youtube, etc) which has a huge impact on their learning. In today\u2019s world, people google first to understand their next steps.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"c4\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">Core Concepts of Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Modeling\/Observational Learning<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c9\">Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) revolves around the process of knowledge acquisition or learning directly correlated to the observation of models. <\/span><span class=\"c11 c9 c32\">People learn through the observation of modeling, which teaches general rules and strategies for dealing with different situations (Bandura, 1988).<\/span><span class=\"c32 c9\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c1\">Modeling<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0is the term that best describes and, therefore, is used to characterize the psychological processes that underlie matching behavior (Bandura, 1986):<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">Learning would be exceedingly laborious, not to mention hazardous, if people had to rely solely on the effects of their own actions to inform them what to do. Fortunately, most human behavior is learned observationally through modeling: from observing others one forms an idea of how new behaviors are performed, and on later occasions this coded information serves as a guide for action. (Bandura, 1977b, p. 22)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c0\">In order for modeling \/observational learning to occur, four processes exist (Bandura, 1977b, 1986):<\/span><\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"c23 lst-kix_s9zxq2uat1g6-0 start\" start=\"1\">\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Attention<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: someone or something gets their attention<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Retention<\/span><span class=\"c14 c2 c24\">: the information is retained<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2 c7\">Production<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: practice and application<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2 c7\">Motivation<\/span><span class=\"c14 c2 c24\">: positive feedback<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Outcome Expectancies<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">To learn a particular behavior, people must understand what the potential outcome is if they repeat that behavior. The observer does not expect the actual rewards or punishments incurred by the model, but anticipates similar outcomes when imitating the behavior (called outcome expectancies), which is why modeling impacts cognition and behavior. These expectancies are heavily influenced by the environment that the observer grows up in; for example, the expected consequences for a DUI in the United States of America are a fine, with possible jail time, whereas the same charge in another country might lead to the infliction of the death penalty. For example, in the case of a student, the instructions the teacher provides help students see what outcome a particular behavior leads to. It is the duty of the teacher to teach a student that when a behavior is successfully learned, the outcomes are meaningful and valuable to the students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Self-Regulation<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c1\">Self-regulation <\/span><span class=\"c9\">and <\/span><span class=\"c1\">self-efficacy <\/span><span class=\"c9\">are two elements of Bandura's theory that rely heavily on cognitive processes. They represent an individual's ability to control their behavior through internal reward or punishment in the case of self-regulation, and their beliefs in their ability to achieve desired goals as a result of their own actions, in the case of self-efficacy. <\/span><\/p>\n\n<h6 class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 275.00px;height: 183.00px\"><img class=\"alignnone\" style=\"width: 329px;height: 219px;margin-left: 0px;margin-top: 0px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image4-2.png\" alt=\"\"><\/span><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">\u00a0 Image 3.4<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c1\"><strong>Self-regulation<\/strong> <\/span><span class=\"c2\">is a general term that includes both <\/span><em><span class=\"c2 c7\">self-reinforcement <\/span><\/em><span class=\"c2\">and <\/span><em><span class=\"c2 c7\">self-punishment.<\/span><\/em>\n<span class=\"c0\"><strong>Self-reinforcement<\/strong> works primarily through its motivational effects. When an individual sets a standard of performance for themselves, they judge their behavior and determine whether or not it meets the self-determined criteria for reward. Since many activities do not have absolute\u00a0 \u00a0measures of success, the individual often sets their standards in relative ways. For example, a weight-lifter might keep track of how much total weight they lift in each training session, and then monitor their improvement over time or as each competition arrives. Although competitions offer the potential for external reward, the individual might still set a personal standard for success, such as being satisfied only if they win at least one of the individual lifts. The standards that individuals set for themselves can be learned through modeling. This can create problems when models are highly competent, much more so than the observer is capable of performing (such as learning the standards of a world-class athlete). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 282.50px;height: 211.88px\"><img class=\"alignnone\" style=\"width: 282.50px;height: 211.88px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image5-2.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/span><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.5<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><strong><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Self-Efficacy<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c9\">Social Cognitive Theory posits that learning most likely occurs if there is a close identification between the observer and the model, and if the observer also has a good deal of self-efficacy. <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\"><strong>Self-efficacy<\/strong> is the extent to which an individual believes that they can master a particular skill. <\/span><span class=\"c9\">Self-efficacy beliefs function as an important set of proximal determinants of human motivation, affect, and action-which operate on action through motivational, cognitive, and affective intervening processes <\/span><span class=\"c0\">(Bandura, 1989).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">Self-efficacy can be developed or increased by:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c2\">\u2022 <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Mastery experience<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: <\/span><span class=\"c0\">which is a process that helps an individual achieve simple tasks that lead to more complex objectives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c2\">\u2022 <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Social modeling<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: <\/span><span class=\"c0\">provides an identifiable model that shows the processes that accomplish a behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c2\">\u2022 <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Improving physical and emotional states<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: <\/span><span class=\"c0\">refers to ensuring a person is rested and relaxed prior to attempting a new behavior.

It is the duty of the teacher to allow students to develop and perceive their efficacy by providing feedback to understand their level of proficiency. Teachers should ensure that the students have the knowledge and strategies they need to complete the tasks. Self-efficacy development is an exploring human agency and human capability process.<\/span><span class=\"c11 c9 c20\">Young children may not have fully developed a sense of what they can and cannot do. So, adult guidance can support young children in developing self-efficacy. <\/span><span class=\"c0\">For example, they can climb to high places, wander into rivers or deep pools, and wield sharp knives before they develop the necessary skills for managing such situations safely.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">The influence of Social Interaction<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">Social interaction becomes highly influential as students begin their schooling. Not only does the child learn a great deal from the family, but as they grow, peers become increasingly important. As the child's world expands, peers bring with them a broadening of self-efficacy experiences. This can have both positive and negative consequences. Peers who are most experienced and competent can become important models of behavior. For many children, unfortunately, the academic environment of school is a challenge. Children quickly learn to rank themselves (grades help, both good and bad), and children who do poorly can lose the sense of self-efficacy that is necessary for continued effort at school. According to Bandura, it is important that educational practices focus not only on the content they provide, but also on what they do to children's beliefs about their abilities (Bandura, 1986, 1997).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c3 c1\">Adolescence<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\"><img class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/6\/68\/Young_Teenagers_Playing_Guitar_Band_of_Youth.jpg\" alt=\"File:Young Teenagers Playing Guitar Band of Youth.jpg - Wikimedia Commons\" width=\"361\" height=\"203\"><\/span><\/p>\n\n<h6 class=\"c4\"><em><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.6<\/span><\/em><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">As children continue through adolescence toward adulthood, they need to assume responsibility for themselves in all aspects of life. They must master many new skills, and a sense of confidence in working toward the future is dependent on a developing sense of self-efficacy supported by past experiences of mastery. In adulthood, a healthy and realistic sense of self-efficacy provides the motivation necessary to pursue success in one's life. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">In summary, as we learn more about our world and how it works, we also learn that we can have a significant impact on it. Most importantly, we can have a direct effect on our immediate personal environment, especially with regard to personal relationships, behaviors, and goals. What motivates us to try influencing our environment is specific ways in which we believe, indeed, we can make a difference in a direction we want in life. Thus, research has focused largely on what people think about their efficacy, rather than on their actual ability to achieve their goals (Bandura, 1997).<\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Impact of Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">Bandura is still influencing the world with expansions of Social Cognitive Theory (SCT). SCT has been applied to many areas of human functioning such as career choice and organizational behavior as well as in understanding classroom motivation, learning, and achievement (Lent, Brown, &amp; Hackett, 1994). Bandura (2001) brought SCT to mass communication in his journal article that stated the theory could be used to analyze how \"symbolic communication influences human thought, affect and action\" (p. 3). The theory shows how new behavior diffuses through society by psychosocial factors governing acquisition and adoption of the behavior. Bandura's (2011) book chapter \"The Social and Policy Impact of Social Cognitive Theory\" to extend SCT's application in health promotion and urgent global issues, which provides insight into addressing global problems through a macro social lens, aiming at improving equality of individuals' lives under the umbrellas of SCT. This work focuses on how SCT impacts areas of both health and population effects in relation to climate change. He proposes that these problems could be solved through television serial dramas that show models similar to viewers performing the desired behavior. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c9\">Bandura (2011) states population growth is a global crisis because of its correlation with depletion and degradation of our planet's resources. Bandura argues that SCT should be used to get people to use birth control, reduce gender inequality through education, and to model environmental conservation to improve the state of the planet. Green and Peil (2009) reported he has tried to use cognitive theory to solve a number of global problems such as environmental conservation, poverty, soaring population growth, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Criticism of Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/h2>\n<ol class=\"c23 lst-kix_dq7an54lbyyz-0 start\" start=\"1\">\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">The social cognitive theory is that it is not a unified theory. This means that the different aspects of the theory may not be connected. For example, researchers currently cannot find a connection between observational learning and self-efficacy within the social-cognitive perspective. <\/span><\/li>\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2\">The theory is so broad that not all of its component parts are fully understood and integrated into a single explanation of learning.<\/span>\n<span class=\"c0\">\u00a0The findings associated with this theory are still, for the most part, preliminary. <\/span><\/li>\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">The theory is limited in that not all social learning can be directly observed. Because of this, it can be difficult to quantify the effect that social cognition has on development.<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Finally, this theory tends to ignore maturation throughout the lifespan. Because of this, the understanding of how a child learns through observation and how an adult learns through observation are not differentiated, and factors of development are not included.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h6 class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 296.00px;height: 196.97px\"><img style=\"width: 296.00px;height: 196.97px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image2-2.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/span><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.7<\/span><\/h6>\n<h2 class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Educational Implications of Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c2\">An important assumption of Social Cognitive Theory is that personal determinants, such as self-reflection and self-regulation, do not have to reside unconsciously within individuals<\/span><span class=\"c0\">. People can consciously change and develop their cognitive functioning. This is important to the proposition that self-efficacy too can be changed, or enhanced. From this perspective, people are capable of influencing their own motivation and performance according to the model of triadic reciprocality in which personal determinants (such as self-efficacy), environmental conditions (such as treatment conditions), and action (such as practice) are mutually interactive influences. Improving performance, therefore, depends on changing some of these influences. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c3 c1\">Relevancy to the classroom:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c21 c27\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">In teaching and learning, the challenge upfront is to:<\/span><\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"c23 lst-kix_gpgvs9alouo8-0 start\" start=\"1\">\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Get the learner to believe in his or her personal capabilities to successfully perform a designated task.<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Provide environmental conditions, such as instructional strategies and appropriate technology, that improve the strategies and self-efficacy of the learner.<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Provide opportunities for the learner to experience successful learning as a result of appropriate action (Self-efficacy Theory, n.d.).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"c21\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 323.50px;height: 215.67px\"><img style=\"width: 323.50px;height: 215.67px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image1-3.png\" alt=\"\"> <\/span><em><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.8<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"c21\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Implications in classroom teaching and learning practices:<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c21\">1.

Modeling provides an alternative to teaching new behaviors. To promote effective modeling, teachers must ensure the four essential conditions exist: attention, retention, production, and motivation (reinforcement and punishment);<\/span>\n\n4. Instead of using shaping, an operant conditioning strategy, teachers will find modeling is a faster and more efficient means of teaching new knowledge, skills, and dispositions;\n\n5. Teachers must model appropriate behaviors and they do not model inappropriate behaviors;\n\n6. Teachers should expose students to a variety of models including peers and other adult models; this is important to break down stereotypes;\n\n7. Modeling also includes modeling of interest, thinking process, attitudes, instructional materials, media (TV and advertisement), academic work achievement and progress, encouragement, emotions, etc. in the physical, mental and emotional aspects of development.\n\n8. Students must believe that they are capable of accomplishing a task; it is important for students to develop a sense of self-efficacy. Teachers can promote such self-efficacy by having students receive confidence-building messages, watch others be successful, and experience success on themselves;\n\n9. Teachers should help students set realistic expectations ensuring that expectations are realistically challenging. Sometimes a task is beyond a student's ability;\n\n10. Self-regulation techniques provide an effective method for improving student behaviors.\n<p class=\"c5 c17\"><strong><span class=\"c3 c1\">Chapter Discussion Questions:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ul

In her science class, the students could not seem to follow the neatly printed directions on the white board, nor did the color-coordinated handouts seem to make any difference. She had run around the room trying to respond to the different groups attempting the science project but there was a great deal of confusion. It was one of those days where she questioned her career choice- was she really cut out to be a teacher? After a good night\u2019s sleep and coaching from a colleague, Ms. Mitchell was determined to try a different approach and model every step of the process. After she modeled each section, students seemed to get it quickly. \u00a0Following some verbal encouragement from Ms. Mitchell, there was soon a happy buzz in the classroom as students engaged with each other in the steps of the science project. Ms. Mitchell was even able to rest her feet, drink her herbal tea and consider what a difference these simple strategies made.<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c24\">What changes did Ms. Mitchell make? How did modeling the activity change the end result and facilitate their learning? How did her positive remarks reinforce their confidence with the tasks? How did group work also build engagement? As you read through this chapter, consider the power of observation and how learning occurs in a social context with a dynamic and reciprocal interaction of the person, environment, and behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"oembed-1\" title=\"Social Cognitive Theory\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LdbjLmlcwhU?feature=oembed&#38;rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #000000\">Video 3.1 &#8211; Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/h6>\n<h2 id=\"h.hnoj9sf1vy5\" class=\"c5 c18\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Introduction<\/span><\/h2>\n<h6 class=\"c5 c18\" style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 234.00px;height: 215.00px\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" style=\"width: 234.00px;height: 215.00px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image7-2.png\" alt=\"\" \/> <\/span><span class=\"c0\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.2<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c0\">Albert Bandura (1925-2021) was born in Mundare, Alberta, Canada, the youngest of six children. Both of his parents were immigrants from Eastern Europe. Bandura&#8217;s father worked as a track layer for the Trans-Canada railroad while his mother worked in a general store before they were able to buy some land and become farmers. Though times were often hard growing up, Bandura&#8217;s parents placed great emphasis on celebrating life and more importantly family. They were also very keen on their children doing well in school. Mundare had only one school at the time so Bandura did all of his schooling in one place.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c0\">Bandura attended the University of British Columbia and graduated three years later in 1949 with the Bolocan Award in psychology. Bandura then went to the University of Iowa to complete his graduate work. At the time, the University of Iowa was central to psychological study, especially in the area of social learning theory. By 1952, Bandura completed his Master&#8217;s and Ph.D. in clinical psychology. Bandura worked at the Wichita Guidance Center before accepting a position as a faculty member at Stanford University in 1953. Bandura has studied many different topics over the years, including aggression in adolescents (more specifically he was interested in aggression in boys who came from intact middle-class families), children&#8217;s abilities to self-regulate and self-reflect, and of course self-efficacy (a person&#8217;s perception and beliefs about their ability to produce effects, or influence events that concern their lives).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">Bandura is perhaps most famous for his <\/span><span class=\"c1\">Bobo Doll <\/span><span class=\"c1\">experiments<\/span><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0in the 1960s. At the time there was a popular belief that learning was a result of reinforcement. In the Bobo Doll experiments, Bandura presented children with social models of novel (new) violent behavior or non-violent behavior towards the inflatable rebounding Bobo Doll. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 601.50px;height: 340.70px\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" style=\"width: 761px;height: 432px;margin-left: 0px;margin-top: 0px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image10.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/span><span class=\"c25 c9\"><a class=\"c8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/Bobo_Doll_Deneyi.jpg?fit%3D499%252C283%26ssl%3D1&amp;sa=D&amp;source=editors&amp;ust=1668984102061245&amp;usg=AOvVaw3va3tsrxo-Vc9YcDrKyosf\">https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/Bobo_Doll_Deneyi.jpg?fit=499%2C283&amp;ssl=1<\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.3<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">Children who viewed the violent behavior were in turn violent towards the doll; the control group was rarely violent towards the doll. That became Bandura&#8217;s social learning theory in the 1960s. <\/span><span class=\"c1\">Social learning theory focuses on what people learn from observing and interacting with other people. <\/span><span class=\"c9\">It is often called a bridge between behaviorist and cognitive learning theories because it encompasses attention, memory, and motivation. Bandura went on to expand motivational and cognitive processes on social learning theory. In 1986, Bandura published his second book <\/span><span class=\"c2\">Social Foundations of Thought and Action: A Social Cognitive Theory, <\/span><span class=\"c9\">in which he renamed his original social learning theory to be social cognitive theory. Social cognitive theory claims that <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">learning occurs in a social context with a dynamic and reciprocal interaction of the person, environment, and behavior.<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"c9\">\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"c9 c33\"><strong>Social Cognitive Theory<\/strong> posits that people are not simply shaped by that environment; they are active participants in their environment. <\/span><span class=\"c0\">Bandura is highly recognized for his work on social learning theory and social cognitive theory. <\/span><span class=\"c9\">Social learning is also commonly referred to as <\/span><span class=\"c1\">observational learning<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, because it comes about as a result of observing others. Bandura became interested in social aspects of learning at the beginning of his career. <\/span><span class=\"c1\">Social learning theory <\/span><span class=\"c9\">emphasizes that <\/span><span class=\"c1\">behavior<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, <\/span><span class=\"c1\">personal factors<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, and <\/span><span class=\"c1\">environmental factors <\/span><span class=\"c0\">are all equal, interlocking determinants of each other (Bandura, 1973, 1977a; Figure 3.1).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">Bandura proposed the idea of <\/span><span class=\"c1\">reciprocal determinism<\/span><span class=\"c0\">, in which our behavior, personal factors, and environmental factors all influence each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<h6 class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c0\" style=\"color: #000000\">Figure 3.1 Reciprocal Determinism<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 519.40px;height: 274.27px\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"width: 519.40px;height: 274.27px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image8.jpg\" alt=\"A flowchart showing reciprocal determinism. Personal factors, such as cognition, affect, biology, in addition with behavior and environmental factors, influence each other.\" \/><\/span><span class=\"c0\">&#8220;During their studies of aggression, Bandura and others determined that reciprocal determinism can be seen in everyday observations, and that approximately 75 percent of the time, hostile behavior results in hostile responses, whereas non-hostile acts seldom result in such consequences\u201d (Bandura, 1973). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c9\">1. <\/span><span class=\"c1\">Personal: <\/span><span class=\"c0\">Whether the individual has high or low self-efficacy toward the behavior (i.e. Get the learner to believe in his or her personal abilities to correctly complete a behavior).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">2. <\/span><span class=\"c1\">Behavioral <\/span><span class=\"c0\">: The response an individual receives after they perform a behavior (i.e. Provide chances for the learner to experience successful learning as a result of performing the behavior correctly).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">3. <\/span><span class=\"c1\">Environmental: <\/span><span class=\"c0\">Aspects of the environment or setting that influence the individual&#8217;s ability to successfully complete a behavior (i.e. Make environmental conditions conducive for improved self-efficacy by providing appropriate support and materials). (Bandura, 2002)<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"c4\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">Overview of Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">In 1986, Bandura published his second book <\/span><span class=\"c2\">Social foundations of thought and action: A social cognitive theory, <\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"c9\">which expanded and renamed his original theory. He called the new theory Social Cognitive Theory (SCT). Bandura changed the name <em>Social Learning Theory <\/em>to <em>Social Cognitive Theory <\/em>to emphasize the major role cognition plays in encoding and performing behaviors. In this book,\u00a0 <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Bandura (1986) argued that human behavior is caused by personal, behavioral, and environmental influences. <\/span><span class=\"c0\">Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) holds that portions of an individual&#8217;s knowledge acquisition can be directly related to observing others within the context of social interactions, experiences, and outside media influences. The theory states that when people observe a model performing a behavior and the consequences of that behavior, they remember the sequence of events and use this information to guide subsequent behaviors. Observing a model can also prompt the viewer to engage in behavior they already learned (Bandura, 1986, 2002). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c0\">In other words, people do not learn new behaviors solely by trying them and either succeeding or failing, but rather, the survival of humanity is dependent upon the replication of the actions of others. Depending on whether people are rewarded or punished for their behavior and the outcome of the behavior, the observer may choose to replicate behavior modeled. Media provides models for a vast array of people in many different environmental settings. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"c0\"><strong>Social Cognitive Theory (SCT)<\/strong> is a learning theory based on the idea that people learn by observing others. Consider the power of social media today in terms of influence and education. When people want to know something, they turn to Google, Youtube, and Pinterest to see how others do it.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"c23 lst-kix_ov1ioysytc0s-0 start\">\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Learned behaviors can be central to one&#8217;s personality. While social psychologists agree that the environment one grows up in contributes to behavior, the individual person (and the way they process\/ their cognition) is just as important. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c9\">People learn by observing others, with <\/span><span class=\"c1\">the environment<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, <\/span><span class=\"c1\">behavior<\/span><span class=\"c9\">, and <\/span><span class=\"c1\">cognition <\/span><span class=\"c9\">all as the chief factors in influencing development in a <\/span><span class=\"c1\">reciprocal triadic relationship <\/span><span class=\"c0\">(illustrated above in figure 3.1). For example, each behavior witnessed can change a person&#8217;s way of thinking (cognition). Similarly, the environment one is raised in may influence later behaviors.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"c4 c12\"><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 369.33px;height: 193.50px\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"width: 369.33px;height: 193.50px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image3-3.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h6 class=\"c21\" style=\"text-align: right\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.3<\/span><\/h6>\n<h2 class=\"c4\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Human Capability<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">Evolving over time, human beings are featured with advanced neutral systems, which enable individuals to acquire knowledge and skills by both direct and symbolic terms (Bandura, 2002). Four primary capabilities are addressed as important foundations of social cognitive theory: <\/span><span class=\"c3 c1\"><strong>symbolizing capability<\/strong>, <strong>self-regulation capability<\/strong>, <strong>self-reflective capability,<\/strong> and <strong>vicarious capability<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c9\">1. <\/span><strong><span class=\"c1\">Symbolizing Capability<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c9\"><strong>:<\/strong> People are affected not only by direct experience but also indirect events. Instead of merely learning through trial-and-error processes, human beings are able to symbolically perceive events conveyed in messages, construct possible solutions, and evaluate the anticipated outcomes. <\/span><br \/>\n<em><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Example: People read to learn about history, and can use past events to consider current events.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c9\">2. <\/span><strong><span class=\"c1\">Self-regulation Capability<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c9\"><strong>:<\/strong> Individuals can regulate their own intentions and behaviors by themselves. Self-regulation <\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"c1\">relies <\/span><span class=\"c9\">on both negative and positive feedback systems, in which discrepancy reduction and discrepancy production are involved. That is, individuals proactively motivate and guide their actions by setting challenging goals and then making an effort to fulfill them. In doing so, individuals gain skills, resources, and self-efficacy. <\/span><br \/>\n<em><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Example: People are able to develop goals and work plans to make progress toward long term projects, such as Pursuing a Bachelor&#8217;s degree or building a garden shed in their backyard.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c9\">3. <\/span><strong><span class=\"c1\">Self-reflective Capability<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c9\">: \u00a0Individuals can evaluate their thoughts and actions by themselves, which is identified as another distinct feature of human beings. By verifying the adequacy and soundness of their thoughts through enactive, various, social, or logical manner, individuals can generate new ideas, adjust their thoughts, and take actions accordingly. <\/span><br \/>\n<em><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Example: People are able to vote on local ballot measures by reading all the voting literature and making educated assessments and decisions.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c9\">4. <\/span><strong><span class=\"c1\">Vicarious Capability<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c9\"><strong>:<\/strong> Individuals <\/span><span class=\"c32 c11 c9\">can adopt skills and knowledge through observation of others&#8217; actions and consequences, which also helps them gain insight into their own activities. From a study in 2002, Bandura concluded that much of the information encountered in our lives derives from mass media rather than a trial-and-error process (Bandura, 2002). <\/span><br \/>\n<em><span class=\"c2 c7\">Example: People learn a great deal from current media (Google, Youtube, etc) which has a huge impact on their learning. In today\u2019s world, people google first to understand their next steps.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"c4\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">Core Concepts of Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Modeling\/Observational Learning<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c9\">Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) revolves around the process of knowledge acquisition or learning directly correlated to the observation of models. <\/span><span class=\"c11 c9 c32\">People learn through the observation of modeling, which teaches general rules and strategies for dealing with different situations (Bandura, 1988).<\/span><span class=\"c32 c9\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c1\">Modeling<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0is the term that best describes and, therefore, is used to characterize the psychological processes that underlie matching behavior (Bandura, 1986):<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">Learning would be exceedingly laborious, not to mention hazardous, if people had to rely solely on the effects of their own actions to inform them what to do. Fortunately, most human behavior is learned observationally through modeling: from observing others one forms an idea of how new behaviors are performed, and on later occasions this coded information serves as a guide for action. (Bandura, 1977b, p. 22)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"c0\">In order for modeling \/observational learning to occur, four processes exist (Bandura, 1977b, 1986):<\/span><\/p>\n<ol class=\"c23 lst-kix_s9zxq2uat1g6-0 start\" start=\"1\">\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Attention<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: someone or something gets their attention<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Retention<\/span><span class=\"c14 c2 c24\">: the information is retained<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2 c7\">Production<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: practice and application<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2 c7\">Motivation<\/span><span class=\"c14 c2 c24\">: positive feedback<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Outcome Expectancies<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">To learn a particular behavior, people must understand what the potential outcome is if they repeat that behavior. The observer does not expect the actual rewards or punishments incurred by the model, but anticipates similar outcomes when imitating the behavior (called outcome expectancies), which is why modeling impacts cognition and behavior. These expectancies are heavily influenced by the environment that the observer grows up in; for example, the expected consequences for a DUI in the United States of America are a fine, with possible jail time, whereas the same charge in another country might lead to the infliction of the death penalty. For example, in the case of a student, the instructions the teacher provides help students see what outcome a particular behavior leads to. It is the duty of the teacher to teach a student that when a behavior is successfully learned, the outcomes are meaningful and valuable to the students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Self-Regulation<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c1\">Self-regulation <\/span><span class=\"c9\">and <\/span><span class=\"c1\">self-efficacy <\/span><span class=\"c9\">are two elements of Bandura&#8217;s theory that rely heavily on cognitive processes. They represent an individual&#8217;s ability to control their behavior through internal reward or punishment in the case of self-regulation, and their beliefs in their ability to achieve desired goals as a result of their own actions, in the case of self-efficacy. <\/span><\/p>\n<h6 class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 275.00px;height: 183.00px\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" style=\"width: 329px;height: 219px;margin-left: 0px;margin-top: 0px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image4-2.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/span><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">\u00a0 Image 3.4<\/span><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c1\"><strong>Self-regulation<\/strong> <\/span><span class=\"c2\">is a general term that includes both <\/span><em><span class=\"c2 c7\">self-reinforcement <\/span><\/em><span class=\"c2\">and <\/span><em><span class=\"c2 c7\">self-punishment.<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<span class=\"c0\"><strong>Self-reinforcement<\/strong> works primarily through its motivational effects. When an individual sets a standard of performance for themselves, they judge their behavior and determine whether or not it meets the self-determined criteria for reward. Since many activities do not have absolute\u00a0 \u00a0measures of success, the individual often sets their standards in relative ways. For example, a weight-lifter might keep track of how much total weight they lift in each training session, and then monitor their improvement over time or as each competition arrives. Although competitions offer the potential for external reward, the individual might still set a personal standard for success, such as being satisfied only if they win at least one of the individual lifts. The standards that individuals set for themselves can be learned through modeling. This can create problems when models are highly competent, much more so than the observer is capable of performing (such as learning the standards of a world-class athlete). <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 282.50px;height: 211.88px\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" style=\"width: 282.50px;height: 211.88px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image5-2.png\" alt=\"\" \/> <\/span><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.5<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><strong><span class=\"c14 c2 c7\">Self-Efficacy<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c9\">Social Cognitive Theory posits that learning most likely occurs if there is a close identification between the observer and the model, and if the observer also has a good deal of self-efficacy. <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\"><strong>Self-efficacy<\/strong> is the extent to which an individual believes that they can master a particular skill. <\/span><span class=\"c9\">Self-efficacy beliefs function as an important set of proximal determinants of human motivation, affect, and action-which operate on action through motivational, cognitive, and affective intervening processes <\/span><span class=\"c0\">(Bandura, 1989).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">Self-efficacy can be developed or increased by:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c2\">\u2022 <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Mastery experience<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: <\/span><span class=\"c0\">which is a process that helps an individual achieve simple tasks that lead to more complex objectives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c2\">\u2022 <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Social modeling<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: <\/span><span class=\"c0\">provides an identifiable model that shows the processes that accomplish a behavior.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c2\">\u2022 <\/span><span class=\"c2 c7\">Improving physical and emotional states<\/span><span class=\"c2\">: <\/span><span class=\"c0\">refers to ensuring a person is rested and relaxed prior to attempting a new behavior.

It is the duty of the teacher to allow students to develop and perceive their efficacy by providing feedback to understand their level of proficiency. Teachers should ensure that the students have the knowledge and strategies they need to complete the tasks. Self-efficacy development is an exploring human agency and human capability process.<\/span><span class=\"c11 c9 c20\">Young children may not have fully developed a sense of what they can and cannot do. So, adult guidance can support young children in developing self-efficacy. <\/span><span class=\"c0\">For example, they can climb to high places, wander into rivers or deep pools, and wield sharp knives before they develop the necessary skills for managing such situations safely.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">The influence of Social Interaction<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">Social interaction becomes highly influential as students begin their schooling. Not only does the child learn a great deal from the family, but as they grow, peers become increasingly important. As the child&#8217;s world expands, peers bring with them a broadening of self-efficacy experiences. This can have both positive and negative consequences. Peers who are most experienced and competent can become important models of behavior. For many children, unfortunately, the academic environment of school is a challenge. Children quickly learn to rank themselves (grades help, both good and bad), and children who do poorly can lose the sense of self-efficacy that is necessary for continued effort at school. According to Bandura, it is important that educational practices focus not only on the content they provide, but also on what they do to children&#8217;s beliefs about their abilities (Bandura, 1986, 1997).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c3 c1\">Adolescence<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/6\/68\/Young_Teenagers_Playing_Guitar_Band_of_Youth.jpg\" alt=\"File:Young Teenagers Playing Guitar Band of Youth.jpg - Wikimedia Commons\" width=\"361\" height=\"203\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<h6 class=\"c4\"><em><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.6<\/span><\/em><\/h6>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">As children continue through adolescence toward adulthood, they need to assume responsibility for themselves in all aspects of life. They must master many new skills, and a sense of confidence in working toward the future is dependent on a developing sense of self-efficacy supported by past experiences of mastery. In adulthood, a healthy and realistic sense of self-efficacy provides the motivation necessary to pursue success in one&#8217;s life. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">In summary, as we learn more about our world and how it works, we also learn that we can have a significant impact on it. Most importantly, we can have a direct effect on our immediate personal environment, especially with regard to personal relationships, behaviors, and goals. What motivates us to try influencing our environment is specific ways in which we believe, indeed, we can make a difference in a direction we want in life. Thus, research has focused largely on what people think about their efficacy, rather than on their actual ability to achieve their goals (Bandura, 1997).<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Impact of Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">Bandura is still influencing the world with expansions of Social Cognitive Theory (SCT). SCT has been applied to many areas of human functioning such as career choice and organizational behavior as well as in understanding classroom motivation, learning, and achievement (Lent, Brown, &amp; Hackett, 1994). Bandura (2001) brought SCT to mass communication in his journal article that stated the theory could be used to analyze how &#8220;symbolic communication influences human thought, affect and action&#8221; (p. 3). The theory shows how new behavior diffuses through society by psychosocial factors governing acquisition and adoption of the behavior. Bandura&#8217;s (2011) book chapter &#8220;The Social and Policy Impact of Social Cognitive Theory&#8221; to extend SCT&#8217;s application in health promotion and urgent global issues, which provides insight into addressing global problems through a macro social lens, aiming at improving equality of individuals&#8217; lives under the umbrellas of SCT. This work focuses on how SCT impacts areas of both health and population effects in relation to climate change. He proposes that these problems could be solved through television serial dramas that show models similar to viewers performing the desired behavior. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c9\">Bandura (2011) states population growth is a global crisis because of its correlation with depletion and degradation of our planet&#8217;s resources. Bandura argues that SCT should be used to get people to use birth control, reduce gender inequality through education, and to model environmental conservation to improve the state of the planet. Green and Peil (2009) reported he has tried to use cognitive theory to solve a number of global problems such as environmental conservation, poverty, soaring population growth, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Criticism of Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/h2>\n<ol class=\"c23 lst-kix_dq7an54lbyyz-0 start\" start=\"1\">\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">The social cognitive theory is that it is not a unified theory. This means that the different aspects of the theory may not be connected. For example, researchers currently cannot find a connection between observational learning and self-efficacy within the social-cognitive perspective. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c2\">The theory is so broad that not all of its component parts are fully understood and integrated into a single explanation of learning.<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"c0\">\u00a0The findings associated with this theory are still, for the most part, preliminary. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">The theory is limited in that not all social learning can be directly observed. Because of this, it can be difficult to quantify the effect that social cognition has on development.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Finally, this theory tends to ignore maturation throughout the lifespan. Because of this, the understanding of how a child learns through observation and how an adult learns through observation are not differentiated, and factors of development are not included.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h6 class=\"c4\"><span class=\"c0\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 296.00px;height: 196.97px\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 296.00px;height: 196.97px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image2-2.png\" alt=\"\" \/> <\/span><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.7<\/span><\/h6>\n<h2 class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Educational Implications of Social Cognitive Theory<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c5\"><span class=\"c2\">An important assumption of Social Cognitive Theory is that personal determinants, such as self-reflection and self-regulation, do not have to reside unconsciously within individuals<\/span><span class=\"c0\">. People can consciously change and develop their cognitive functioning. This is important to the proposition that self-efficacy too can be changed, or enhanced. From this perspective, people are capable of influencing their own motivation and performance according to the model of triadic reciprocality in which personal determinants (such as self-efficacy), environmental conditions (such as treatment conditions), and action (such as practice) are mutually interactive influences. Improving performance, therefore, depends on changing some of these influences. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c4\"><strong><span class=\"c3 c1\">Relevancy to the classroom:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"c21 c27\"><span class=\"c3 c1\">\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"c0\">In teaching and learning, the challenge upfront is to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol class=\"c23 lst-kix_gpgvs9alouo8-0 start\" start=\"1\">\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Get the learner to believe in his or her personal capabilities to successfully perform a designated task.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Provide environmental conditions, such as instructional strategies and appropriate technology, that improve the strategies and self-efficacy of the learner.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"c5 c6 li-bullet-0\"><span class=\"c0\">Provide opportunities for the learner to experience successful learning as a result of appropriate action (Self-efficacy Theory, n.d.).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"c21\"><span style=\"overflow: hidden;margin: 0.00px 0.00px;border: 0.00px solid #000000;width: 323.50px;height: 215.67px\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 323.50px;height: 215.67px;margin-left: 0.00px;margin-top: 0.00px\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.hccfl.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2024\/01\/image1-3.png\" alt=\"\" \/> <\/span><em><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Image 3.8<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"c21\"><span class=\"c3 c1\" style=\"color: #000000\">Implications in classroom teaching and learning practices:<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"c21\">1.

To promote effective modeling, teachers must ensure the four essential conditions exist: attention, retention, production, and motivation (reinforcement and punishment);<\/span><\/p>\n<p>4. Instead of using shaping, an operant conditioning strategy, teachers will find modeling is a faster and more efficient means of teaching new knowledge, skills, and dispositions;<\/p>\n<p>5. Teachers must model appropriate behaviors and they do not model inappropriate behaviors;<\/p>\n<p>6. Teachers should expose students to a variety of models including peers and other adult models; this is important to break down stereotypes;<\/p>\n<p>7. Modeling also includes modeling of interest, thinking process, attitudes, instructional materials, media (TV and advertisement), academic work achievement and progress, encouragement, emotions, etc. in the physical, mental and emotional aspects of development.<\/p>\n<p>8. Students must believe that they are capable of accomplishing a task; it is important for students to develop a sense of self-efficacy. Teachers can promote such self-efficacy by having students receive confidence-building messages, watch others be successful, and experience success on themselves;<\/p>\n<p>9. Teachers should help students set realistic expectations ensuring that expectations are realistically challenging. Sometimes a task is beyond a student&#8217;s ability;<\/p>\n<p>10.
