It’s like what they told me when I was younger, we’re sponges. We absorb what’s around us. Or what’s the other saying? “Show me your friends and I’ll show you your future.”

Don't know if someone is reading this, but if you are: You are amazing and beautiful! I believe in you!

[SecureLemons]

4:43 the biggest takeaway here; your subconscious always learning from anything you watch, even if you have no clue it's going on

[alyssadraffin]

As always excellent share Theodore. It's amazing how much can be picked up through seemingly subtle behaviour

[reallifepsych]

Love this channel. Perfect for a little “break” while at work haha

History had already documented for thousands of years that parents and guardians of children, have witnessed children in all types of environments, good, bad, and the ugly, imitate those behaviors for which they have been exposed to.

Accomplishment is socially judged by ill defined criteria so that one has to rely on others to find out how one is doing.

I thought we settled on the question of incentives vs learned behavior, and what remains is the sociological question, as old as philosophy of the primacy of the enviroment/culture or genetics/self-first regarding learning as in vygotsky vs piajet that bandura bypass by proposing a third way which is not really theoretically robust enough as the piaget vs vygotsky paradigms/research projects

[houstonwyatt]

In the video it is stated that there were three groups for the first experiment, but only said what happened to the first and second group. What was the third group for?

Perhaps this is because I'm a former drug addict but my first thought was this is why kids in poverty situations tend to emulate drug dealers. They seem to be getting ahead in spite of their negative actions. I have to add to that rappers. They glorify all the negative stereotypes and act like they got ahead because of it.

So i just had an epiphany as a psychology student...bandura said u remember the observed behaviour..and later u imitate it if required... That's something what tolman said about latent learning.. that u learn the behaviour but u don't perform it until u found the motivation or incentive .... (p.s. Correct me if i am making wrong connections here)

[rutuparnamahakhud]

I want answer for the last question..did the children watching movies also acted like those who were watching it live?
I think the effect might be not much.

thank you, it's easy for me to know more and do my homework.

Hi there, I am a lecturer at the University of South Africa and would like to know if I can provide my students with a link to some of your video clips? It is for educational purposes. Thank you

[BrDe]

Really helped explain the experiments and their meaning, thanks!!

Bobo doll experiment, groundbreaking study on aggression led by psychologist Albert Bandura that demonstrated that children are able to learn through the observation of adult behaviour.

As a Filipino I found it interestingly disturbing.. I didn't research much about this but in Philippine language.. 'bobo' is a word use to refer someone as 'dumb' or 'uneducated' -- someone who doesn't know anything or just doesn't know alot. I don't know when Filipino started using the 'bobo' word but during the Spanish colonization they spread the words 'tonto', 'stupido', 'mal educado' and 'ignorante'. I was thinking of majoring Psych when I was in college but the reality of learning the mind of another human operates differently from the 'normal' or acceptable, I'm prettysure being a very sensitive and emotional person I will probably drop out of the course. Esp using kids or exposing them to possible trauma.

I have recently observed the behaviour of contestants on an actuality programme called "Britain's got talent". In the programme there are outakes of contestants behaving badly when they are informed that their performances are sub standard. The failed contestant is punished by the disaproval of the "stars" on the judging panel. I feel that these contestants are punished further for their bad behaviour by being published on Utube and observed by many people. Maybe this is asking too much of Bandura but could this situation, described above, not be very damaging to the cotestant?
