EPPP Learning theory : Cognitive Learning theories

Learning that occurs but is not apparent until there is an incentive to demonstrate it.

when growing up, kids see their parents sort and do laundry but never do their own, when they get to colloege kids already know how to do laundry but didn't do it until they had to aka when they got to college

The process of learning how to solve a problem or do something new by applying what is already known., reasoning; when an animal applies something it has already learned to a new situation without a period of trial and error

person arrives at solution to problem after thinking from different angle

A type of learning that occurs when an organism's responding is influenced by the observation of others, who are called models.

Bandura's research found that among children who observed the aggressive model: ___ were more likely to imitate a male model and _____ were more likely to imitate a female model.

Bandura's research found that among children who observed the aggressive model: both genders were more likely to imitate verbally aggressive behaviors of the model to a similar degree but ___ were LESS likely than ___ to imitate physically aggressive behaviors.

Attentional processes, retention processes, production processes, motivational processes are all _____

The learner attends to and accurately perceives the modeled behavior.

Retaining or remembering the model's behavior so that we can imitate or repeat it at a later time

taking notes during a lecture or a video of someone driving a car

staying awake and attending in drivers ed class

Getting into a car with an instructor to practice driving

if a soap opera character does not use a condom, the story line might have him acquiring a sexually transmitted disease. The reward/punishment factors are important in bringing the audience's attention to the behaviors.

The vicarious observation of the consequences of the behavior in turn increases the observational learning experience

Translating the mental images or verbal symbolic representations of the model's behavior into our own over behavior by physically producing the responses and receiving feedback on the accuracy of our continued practice

in Bandura's theory of vicarious learning, the expectation that a modeled behavior will be reinforced (else they will not perform it)

observers are more likely to imitate a model when the model is high in status, prestige or expertise. The model is similar to the observer (age and gender). The model's behavior is visible, salient and relevant to the observer's needs and goals. the model has been reinforced for engaging in the behavior.

in sociocultural theory, a technique in which skilled mentors help novices learn not only by providing instruction but also by allowing direct, shared involvement in the activity.

Refers to one's belief about one's ability to perform behaviors that should lead to expected outcomes. Those with high levels for a particular task are more likely to succeed than those with low levels

Bandura's model in which cognitions, behaviors, and environmental factors both influence and are influenced by each other

condition in which repeated attempts to control a situation fail, resulting in the belief that the situation is uncontrollable
