    Social learning theory proposed by Albert Bandura posits that behavior is learned from the environment through observation and direct experience. It agrees with classical conditioning but adds that mediating processes occur between stimuli and responses. People learn new behaviors through reinforcement, punishment, or observational learning by watching influential models like parents, teachers, and TV characters. If positive outcomes are observed from modeled behaviors, children are more likely to copy and imitate them.

    SOCIAL LEARNING THEORY

    In this theory, Bandura agrees with the classical theory but adds up two important ideas.

     Mediating process occur between stimuli and response

     Behaviour is learned from the environment through the process of

    observational learning

    This theory states that people learn new behaviour through overt reinforcement or

    punishment or via observational learning of the social factors in their environment.

    Observational learning

    Children observe the people around them behaving in various ways. the individuals that are

    observed are called models .in the society, children are surrounded by many influential

    models such parents and teachers and also the character on children TV. Children pay

    attention to some of these models and encode their behaviour and imitate or and copy. if

    people observe positive desired outcomes in the observed behaviour they copy and model. It

    states that people can learn through observation and direct experience.
