Sozialkognitive Lerntheorie: Banduras Experimente mit der Schlagpuppe

Albert Bandura's social learning theory, developed in the 1960s, challenged the dominant belief that learning is solely a result of conditioning. Through the Bobo doll experiments, Bandura demonstrated that children can learn behaviors through observation. The experiments showed that children imitated aggressive behavior they observed in adults, with variations based on the gender of the model. Bandura's findings highlighted the role of observation in learning and led to discussions on the impact of media violence. He identified five core tenets of social learning, emphasizing the interplay between cognition, behavior, and environment.
