Sheepdog Tip of the Day, Before Combat tip 140
Unlike operant conditioning, in social learning it is not essential that the learner be directly reinforced in order for learning to take place. This means that you can learn behavior, and form attitudes and beliefs, by seeing a role model get rewarded for a behavior. This includes role models in TV, movies, and video games.
