- Q1What theory explains human behaviour in terms of a continuous interaction between cognitive, behavioural and environmental influences. According to this theory behaviours are learned through reinforcement (rewards) and the imitation of modelsSocial learning theorySocial imitation theorySocial role theorySocial copying theory30s
- Q2Bandura wanted to further his research by investigating 4 hypotheses. Select the incorrect hypothesisChildren shown non-aggressive models will show significantly less aggressive behaviour than those shown aggressive or no modelsChildren will show significantly different levels of aggression in relation to parental influenceChildren will imitate same-sex model behaviour to a greater degree than opposite-sex behaviourChildren shown aggressive models will show significantly more imitative aggressive acts resembling those of their models than those shown non-aggressive or no models30s
- Q3What type of experimental method was used in Bandura?QuasiSelf-reportLabField30s
- Q4What type of experimental design was used in Bandura?IndependentRepeatedMatched30s
- Q5What were the 3 IV's in Bandura?The sex of the child, the age of the model and the level of aggression shown by the modelThe sex of the child, the sex of the model and the level of aggression shown by the modelThe age of the child, the sex of the model and the level of aggression shown by the modelThe sex of the observers, the sex of the model and the level of aggression shown by the model30s
- Q6How many children were used as participants in Bandura's study?6567727030s
- Q7What nursery were they selected from?Washington University NurseryStanford University NurseryHarvard University NurseryPrinceton University Nursery30s
- Q8The children were randomly allocated into 3 groups, 24 in the aggressive condition, 24 in the non aggressive condition and 24 in the control group. They were then randomly allocated to 4 groups of 6, ensuring there were a mixture of high, medium and low aggressive children in each group.FalseTrue30s
- Q9The results from the observations are outlined below. Select the incorrect resultChildren in the non-aggressive condition showed very little aggression, although results were not always significantly less than the control groupChildren who saw the same sex model imitated the model’s behaviour significantly moreThe behaviour of the female model exerted greater influence than the male modelChildren in the aggressive condition showed significantly more imitation of physical and verbal aggressive behaviour and verbal responses than children in the non-aggressive or control conditions30s
- Q10How does SLT differ from Behaviourism?SLT states that there are mental processes involved in learnt behaviourBehaviourism states you can only study behaviour through Lab experimentsSLT emphasises the importance of the unconciousSLT involves biological processes30s
