 What is the social learning theory? 
Learning through observation and 
imitation. 
 How might the social learning theory 
explain where aggression comes from? 
Children copying aggressive behaviour 
shown by adults.
 Aim 
To demonstrate that if children witness an 
aggressive display by an adult role 
model they would imitate this behaviour 
when given the opportunity in a new 
environment.
 Hypotheses 
1 Children who observe aggressive acts 
from a model will reproduce these 
aggressive acts. 
2 Observing a non-aggressive model or no 
model will inhibit aggressive behaviour. 
3 Children will imitate same sex models 
more than opposite sex models. 
4 Boys will be more predisposed than girls 
towards imitating aggression.
 What was the sample? 
72 children, 36 boys, 36 girls. Average age 
of 52 months, attending Stanford 
University Nursery School. 
 How was it gathered? 
Opportunity sample, Bandura used 
children that fitted his criteria
 Independent variables: 
-Sex of the child (male/female) 
-Sex of model (male/female) 
-Behaviour of the model (aggressive/non-aggressive) 
 Dependent variable: 
The level of aggressive behaviour shown 
by each child.
 Room 1,Condition 1: An aggressive male 
or female. 
Model spent time being aggressive 
towards the bobo doll. Punched on the 
nose, thrown in the air and hit with a 
mallet. This was a set routine, and was 
repeated 3 times for each child. 
 Condition 2: Non aggressive 
Assembled tinker toys, totally ignoring the 
bobo doll.
 Room 2: mild aggression arousal 
experience 
All 72 children entered. The room was filled 
with attractive toys for the children to 
play with. Once a child started playing 
with the toys the experimenter told them 
that they were her very best toys and 
that they cannot play with them. 
Children were told that they can play 
with the toys in the other room.
 Room 3: observation 
There were various toys, set in a fixed order. 
Aggressive and non-aggressive. Allowed 
to with them for 20 minutes.
1 Set aggressive routine 
2 Amount of times the aggressive routine 
was repeated for each child 
3 Room 3 – the toys were in a fixed order 
4 The children were allowed to play with 
the toys in room 3 for 20 minutes.
 Quantitative: 
- Males showed an average of 25.8 
physically aggressive acts when seeing 
an aggressive male model, compared 
with an avergae of 1.5 when seeing a 
non-aggressive male model. 
- Male children, male model= 25.8 
- Female children, female model=5.5 
- Qualitative: 
- Boys showed more mallet aggression
- Aggression is learnt through observing 
role models that are aggressive. 
- Certain models are more likely to be 
imitated than others dependent on the 
sex of the child and the sex of the model 
- In general, the male aggressive model 
was more influential and boys imitated 
more physical aggression than girls 
- In short, this study is clear evidence for 
the social learning theory.
