Question 1: vicarious reinforcement

Answer:

An increase in the strength of an observed behavior following reinforcement of that behavior in a model.[2]: If the consequences of the models behavior strengthen the observers tendency to behave in a similar way, we say the behavior has been ____ .

Question 2: According to Bandura's theory, we imitate successful models because

Answer:

we expect rewarding consequences.

Question 3: O [MB S +/-]

Answer:

An observer (O) views a models behavior (MB) and its positive and or negative consequences

Question 4: generalized imitation

Answer:

The tendency to imitate modeled behavior even though the imitative behavior is not reinforced

Question 5: Two important variables in social observational learning are

Answer:

the consequences of the models behavior and the consequences of the observer's behavior.

Question 6: O [E ------ S+/-] . This reads

Answer:

An observer (O) views an event E] and its positive and or negative consequences (S. Note that since there is no model, there can be no vicarious reinforcement or punishment, yet the observers behavior is influenced by the consequences of an event.

Question 7: ghost condition

Answer:

An experimental procedure in which an event normally performed by a model appears to occur without a model. The condition is used in studies of asocial observational learning.

Question 8: Learning model also known as

Answer:

unskilled model

Question 9: over-imitation

Answer:

The tendency of observers to imitate acts by a model that are irrelevant/superfluous/unnecessary to obtaining reinforcement.

Question 10: vicarious punishment

Answer:

A decrease in the strength of an observed behavior following punishment of that behavior in a model.[2].If the consequences of the models behavior weaken the observers tendency to behave in a similar way, the behavior is said to be _____ .

Question 11: social observational learning

Answer:

Learning from the observation of a model and the consequences of the models behavior. This form of observational learning is also called vicarious learning.

Question 12: According to the operant learning model, attention refers to the influence

Answer:

of environmental events on behavior.

Question 13: imitation

Answer:

• behave in a manner resembling the behavior of a model.

Question 14: asocial observational learning

Answer:

Learning from the observation of events and their consequences in the absence of a model.

Question 15: learning model

Answer:

In social observational learning, a model who is observed as he or she learns to perform a task. Also called an unskilled model

Question 16: operant learning model

Answer:

Any procedure or experience in which a behavior becomes stronger or weaker (e.., more or less likely to occur, depending on its consequences. Also called instrumental learning. (Cf. Pavlovian conditioning.)

Question 17: observational learning

Answer:

Learning by observing environmental events and their consequences.

Question 18: edutainment

Answer:

Materials (books, videos, radio programs, etc.) that attempt to educate and entertain the public simultaneously (all at the same time).
