What is observational learning?
Acquisition of novel operants as of observing contingencies related to actions
of others
Learning new bxs as of observing others contingencies of ABC
1st Described by Psychologist Bandura
He differentiate between imitation and vicarious learning
Bandura's Process of Observational Learning
Albert Bandura OC (born December 4, 1925 is a Canadian-American psychologist
who is the David Starr Jordan Professor Emeritus of Social Science in Psychology
at Stanford University.
Albert Bandura claims that children continually learn desirable and undesirable
behavior through observational learning. Observational learning suggests that an
individual's environment, cognition, and behavior all incorporate and ultimately
determine how the individual functions and models.
Modeling and imitation are parts of the observational learning process
The same components for effective modeling and imitation are beneficial for
observational learning
SR doesn't need to occur for learning to happen.

, Motivation and anticipation of SR may impact attention details
Highlight important aspects of modeled bxs, help with observational learning
Rate, amount, complexity of the stimuli can impact observational learning
Imitation & Observational Learning
Imitation Observational Learning
The Target Behaviour is modeled and may
Only the behaviour is modeled
include modeling of the Antecedents as well
The observer observes the entire
The individual replicates the behaviour
contingency
SR is provided if the behaviour matches the
behaviour of the model
Needs to be point to point correspondence
Sometimes after observing the model,
between the model and the replicated
the individual replicates the behaviour
behaviour
Imitation
Imitation is required for observational learning
Imitation without discrimination of consequences is problematic
For good observational learning to occur, the individual can not imitate any
sequence of behaviour they observe
Discrimination of consequences occurred when:
The individual observing another person being SR engages in that
behaviour later on
But doesn't replicate behaviours being punished or extinguished
Requirements for Observational Learning
Learner observes the whole contingency ABC
Learner discriminate between SR/SP/EXT
