Social Cognitive

Theory
Social cognitive theory (SCT),
used in psychology, education, and
communication, 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.
This theory was advanced by
Albert Bandura as an extension
of his social learning theory.
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.
 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.
 Social Cognitive Theory originated
in psychology, but based on an unofficial
November 2013 Google Scholar search,
only 2 percent of articles published on SCT
are in the pure psychology field. About 20
percent of articles are from Education and
16 percent from Business. The majority of
publications using SCT, 56 percent, come
from the field of Applied Health
Psychology.
Theoretical
Foundations
Human agency

Social cognitive theory is proposed in

an agentic perspective
Human agency has four core
properties:

Intentionality:

Forethought:

Self-reactiveness:

Self-reflectiveness:
Human capability
Four primary capabilities are
addressed as important foundations
of social cognitive theory:
/ symbolizing capability
/ self-regulation capability
/ self-reflective capability
/vicarious capability.
Theoretical
components
Self-observation
Self-evaluation
Self-reaction
Self-efficacy
As far as an individual's development is
concerned, moral competence is the growth of
cognitive-sensory processes; simply put, being
aware of what is considered right and wrong.
By comparison, moral performance is
influenced by the possible rewards and
incentives to act a certain way.

CAUSES

Cause of antisocial personality disorder is

unknown. Genetic factors and environmental
factors, such as child abuse, are believed to
contribute to the development of this
condition. People with an antisocial or
alcoholic parent are at increased risk. Far more
men than women are affected. The condition is
common among people who are in prison.
