Social learning approach

Personality basis be defined as a theoretical concept that constitute those relatively st commensurate and enduring aspects of an individual which distinguishes them from former(a) people making them unique, exclusively which at the same time abide a comparison between individual. There be various approaches that consider personality. These are the psychoanalytic perspective, the trait theory, expressionist ( nurture) theory, tenderistic theories cognitive and biological approaches. This paper however will explore the behavioural and sociable learn theory approaches to personality.The focus will be in comparing and tell them and relating them to a personal personality disorder. The social learning theory is an approach that argues that we learn through imitation, modeling, and ceremonial of other people manner. If we observe a good behavior from other people, we are likely to be present substantially but if we observe bad behavior from them we behave badly. Albert Bandu ra is considered a study proponent of this theory. This approach also considers the environmental genes claiming they reward modeling.An individual stomach be reinforced directly by a model for drill a student can dress like other to work in their group. A third person can also reinforce modeling. for example a teacher may praise a current student making the others to model him. It is also possible to imitate the behavior itself. For example a student may play football during his untenanted time influencing another to model the behavior. amicable learning theory argues that financial backing and punishment are necessary in learning. They influence the level at which a person demonstrates a learnt behavior.They argue that moral judgment concerning the correct or wrong is modeled. Bandura outlined from major assure for modeling to fall out paying care, remembering, ability to replicate, and motivation. Modeling leads to acquisition of new behavior, affects the frequency o f embarking a learner behavior, encourages a forbidden behavior and increases the frequency of a equal behavior. They emphasize of self regulation in personality development. For example tantrum own goals, self observation, self judgment and self reaction (Ormrod, J. E1999)The behavioural approach in personality assessment argues that personality can be acquired through observation. It put the environment accountable to personality difference among people. It assumes that we can understand other people by observing how they behave. It also argues that a response to certain stimuli m onetime(a)s behavior. Learning can occur though condition in twain human and non human animals. It also assumes that all human are equal at birth. We are born a tabula rasa quash slit as we grow, the environmental factors molds our personality.Proponents of this approach include Skinners (1957) operant condition theory, Pavlov (1936) conditioning theory and Watson (1958). (Axialis Team 2008) Both t he social learning and behavioral theories emphasize on observation learning to personality acquisition. They consider environmental factors that influence our personality. They also consider reinforcement and punishment an important factor in learning. However, social learning theory argues that learning is possible without unavoidably changing the behavior.This contrast the behavioral approach that argues that learning must be represented by a permanent change in behavior. Social learning assumes people can learn through observation entirely and which might not affect their murder olibanum may not or may impact behavior change. This contrasts the behavioral approach which assumes learning must involve a permanent change in behavior as well conditioning necessity in learning. Modeling, imitation and observation cannot be assumed in behavioral acquisition. Environmental factors too are very important in personality assessment.These two approaches consider this. They both bring out a step to explain broader personality to include the animals. On the other hand, we cannot assume the thought processes, unobservable activities, biological and genetic factors in personality assessment and which they assume. Conditioning approach can be utilitarian in explaining how we develop a habit how we model it, who influence us towards the habit and how we can stop the habit. In my early stages of life, I utilise to like toys very much. My rise up would make sure that they bought me. Initially, my elder familiar utilise to like them too.My parents would buy him every time he performed break dance in school. He would spend time with them on his free time. He motivated my love for toys. When I started going to school, my parents adopted a confusable strategy in buying me toys. It was not after I done for(p) one like before, but after I performed better in school. I remember I had a hard time to accommodate to this. Previously I mishandled them after all they would buy me if damaged. This time round, it was base on performance. I wasnt a good performer but I had to work hard to rifle some new toys. If I didnt perform well, the punishment was no toy.As time went by, my performance deteriorated. My parents withdrew their reinforcement. At the keen-sighted run, there were no more new toys. The old ones were not pleasant at all. I hated them. My performance soon is better but I hate toys. In the behavioral view, I observed the habit from my brother and learnt it, the environmental factors, my parent, influenced me to possess the habit of destroying them in order to be bought some new. I was reinforced to work harder to get new toys. The negative stimulation, the punishment, was not to be bought new toys.The aversive stimulus was my parents withdrawal of new toys when my performance decreased. I after stopped liking toys a result of the negative reinforcement. In the social learning view, I learnt the habit from observing my brother he used hi s free time well. My brother was my role model. I paid attention to his habit, I rehearsed and was able to replicate the way he handled and treated the toys. However, my parent motivated me by realizing my habit and therefore bought me some more toys. I did not permanently adapt the behavior implying that learning does not inevitably change behavior.Social learning approach best describes my personality I was able to observe, pay attention, rehearse and replicate my brothers behavior thus influencing my personality. I was able to regulate myself in settling my goals, observe and make my own judgment and choose my reaction from my parents movement towards my habit. These theories explore the complexity of human nature. Whichever dimension they take as long as it explain personality assessment, is worth credential. However, if these approaches are merged they would have a better explanation to personality assessment.
