Applications of Social Learning Theory Now

Applications of Social Learning Theory

In Criminology 
used to explain the emergence and maintenance of deviant behavior, especially aggression
- criminal behavior is learned in both social and nonsocial situations through combinations of direct reinforcement, vicarious reinforcement, explicit instruction, and observation

In Management 
- rewards aren't the sole force behind creating motivation 
- Thoughts, beliefs, morals, and feedback all help to motivate us
- Modeling, or the scenario in which we see someone's behaviors and adopt them as our own, aide the learning process as well as mental states and the cognitive process.
