There are three stages of classical conditioning, before conditioning, during conditioning, and after conditioning. The best example of classical conditioning is Pavlov’s dog experiment which shows how an unconditioned stimulus is paired with a neutral stimulus.

Studies highlight how frequent use of social media can exacerbate problems including low self-esteem and anxiety, which are frequently caused by comparisons with idealized online identities and exposure to cyberbullying. These relationships are consistent with social psychology theories that highlight how social factors shape people's behavior and mental health consequences.                A critical assessment of this influence demands preventative actions to minimize possible risks while maximizing social media's advantages. In order to help teenagers develop resilience-building skills and digital literacy, educat...

Social Learning Theory

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mhe6p3Xkzt0 Social Learning Theory- the view people learn by observing others. I shared a video clip from the movie, Big Daddy, to show an example of social learning theory. You develop behaviors, views, and attitudes from social context. In this clip, you see how the little boy develops the same behavior as his mentor. Who does inappropriate behavior that feeds off to the little kid. Psychologist, Albert Bandura, assimilted two theories into four different requirements for learning - observation (environmental), retention (cognitive), reproduction (cognitive), and motivation (both).
