Albert Bandura
How did you learn to say “mama” or “papa” or
“ate” or “kuya”?
Name something that you learned through
imitation.
Before you imitated someone, what did you do
first?
Did you experience copying someone but
failed? Why do you think you failed?

Key ideas:

Albert Bandura's social learning theory suggests

that observation and modeling play a primary role in
how and why people learn.
Learning, according to Bandura, can occur simply by
observing others' behavior.
"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." https://www.verywellmind.com/social-learning-theory-2795074#a-few-applications-for-social-learning-theor

Behaviorist vs Neo-behaviorist

Behaviorists believed that learning led to a permanent change

in behavior, observational learning demonstrates that people
can learn new information without demonstrating new
behaviors
