- A major part of human learning consists of observational learning.
- In observational learning, a person learns by observing the behavior of a model.
- According to Bandura, observational learning takes place in four steps:
1. Paying attention and perceiving the most critical features of another person's behavior 2. Remembering the behavior 3. Reproducing the action 4. Being motivated to learn and carry out the behavior in the future - Observational learning is central to a number of important issues in which people learn by simply watching the behavior of others.
