In your Introduction you are to cite Bandura, Ross, and Ross (1961) and at least two of the other three Bandura articles. In addition, you must search the literature and locate at least one additional related study to be cited in the Introduction. Bandura, Ross,

You are provided with four articles that describe the early research of Bandura and his colleagues. & Ross (1961) Bandura & Huston (1961) Bandura & McDonald (1963) Bandura, Ross, & Design of a study to investigate the hypothesis(es).

You are to use Bandura, Ross, and Ross' (1961) seminal study of social learning to guide your hypothesis formation and to help shape your methodology.

Procedure, and

Materials

Specify your own hypothesis(es) to examine this aim. In the Method section, they will describe: The participants

Develop an aim that refers to the observation of an inappropriate behaviour (i.e., aggressive/violent or risk taking behaviour) as a plausible mechanism of learning; and

Explore how Bandura (and other social learning theorists) broadened our understanding of the way people learn new behaviours.

Ross (1963) URL By the 1950's, stemming from the work of behavioural researchers such as B.F. Skinner, it was widely held that learning occurred as a result of direct reinforcement.

The research of Albert Bandura and his concept of observational learning challenged this view. The focus of this research proposal will be on the research of Bandura in relation to a developmental issue. It will involve a review of relevant observational learning research, the development of a research question and the description of a proposed study. The report will consist of two sections, an Introduction and a Method.
