Editor's Notes
- There are many important principals of social cognitive theory. Three principals include learning is a mental acquisition, learning is a cognitive processes, and learners must be aware of existing response-consequence contingencies (Ormrod, 2008). A person can observe a behavior, not do the behavior themselves and still know how to complete the behavior. For example, if you watch someone chopping an apple for the first time on a cooking show on tv, you may not have done it yourself but you could do it if you had a knife and an apple. This shows that learning can be mental.
- A person needs to pay attention, rehearse, and make memory codes to learn what has occurred. Learners will want to learn if they know the outcome expectations of completing the behavior of learning (Ormond, 2008). By experiencing many different things in life a person can learn from the behaviors that they see others complete.
