Question

Which of these is one of the four processes that influence social learning theory?

Answer 1

Stages. Bandura's social cognitive learning theory states that there are four stages involved in observational learning:

Attention: Observers cannot learn unless they pay attention to what's happening around them.

Retention/Memory: Observers must not only recognize the observed behavior but also remember it at some later time.

Initiation/Motor: Observers must be physically and/intellectually capable of producing the act. In many cases the observer possesses the necessary responses.

Motivation: The observer must have motivation to recreate the observed behavior.
