Description


 


Observational learning is not the same as pure imitation of another behavior. Observational learning occurs as a result of witnessing another person, but is performed later and cannot be explained as having been taught in any other way. This type of learning also encompasses the concept of behavior avoidance as a result of seeing another person behave in a certain way and receive a negative consequence.


The four stages of observational learning are:


Attention


Retention


Production


Motivation


Make a list of five behaviors of yours that resulted from Observational Learning. Describe how each behavior meets the four stages. Be specific.
