-Social Learning Theory-
Modelling Process
Step 1: Attention- to imitate a behavior accurately, a person must pay attention to the model
and then eliminate anything that catches your attention other than him. The
more interesting the model is, the more likely you are to pay full attention
and learn.
Step 2: Retention- after paying attention, the learner must also remember the behavior that
has been observed. Without it, the learning of the behavior would not be
established.
Step 3: Motor Reproduction- requires you to demonstrate the behavior (actual replication ).
The practice of the behavior by repeatedly doing it is important
for improvement.
Step 4: Motivation- Feeling motivated to repeat the behavior is what you need in order to keep
performing on it. Learners must want to demonstrate what they have
learned.
