BANDURA - hypotheses ( 4)
exposure to aggression will reproduce aggressive acts; observing non-aggressive will inhibit; more imitations if same sex model; boys more agression
1 of 19
BANDURA - pps, design
36 boys and 36 girls, mean age 52 months; lab and matched pairs (from levels of aggression in nursery)
2 of 19
BANDURA - procedure
control group who saw no model, 24 aggressive and 24 non aggressive; 1st room = shown model, 2nd room = not allowed to play with toys; 3rd = observed whilst playing, time point sample recording imitations and non imitations
3 of 19
BANDURA - results
seeing aggression = more aggressive acts; boys more aggressive; both genders showed more aggression if model was male
4 of 19
BANDURA - conclusion
observing behaviour causes imitation, even without rewards
5 of 19
BANDURA - data, ethics, setting,reliability
both data types; parental consent but exposure to violence could affect later - cost benefit?; controls reduced EVS individual differences with matched pairs; standardised = reliable
6 of 19
BANDURA - representativeness, reliability, applications
unrepresentative - kids, small, uni nursery = similar backgrounds; high inter rater reliability; supported by whole TV industry - watershed, certification
7 of 19
CHANEY - aim
test if operant conditioning could improve medical compliance
8 of 19
CHANEY - pps, design
22 boys 10 girls, mean age 3.2, field, repeated measures
9 of 19
CHANEY - procedure
IV= device, DV= compliance; parents filled in questionnaire about current inhaler, used funhaler for 2 weeks (self reinforcement) then did another questionnaire
10 of 19
CHANEY - results
improved compliance, correct dosage increased 50 to 80%, less problems and more satisfaction
11 of 19
CHANEY - conclusion
self reinforcement makes devices more effective and improves health
12 of 19
CHANEY - design, data, ethics, replicability
repeated measures could mean order effects but reduces pp variables; quantitative easy comparison; parental consent; standardised = replicable
13 of 19
CHANEY - validity; representativeness, applications
high ecological val but self report could mean social desirability reduces val; unrepresentative - australian, small, kids; medical compliance could lower admissions and improve health
14 of 19
BANDURA VS CHANEY - design, standardisation, ethics, method
lab vs field; replicability in both; both parental consent but bandura had ethic problems; observation VS self report
15 of 19
BANDURA VS CHANEY - validity
high validity from inter rater VS low validity from self report but high Ecological validity
16 of 19
BANDURA VS CHANEY - ethnocentrism/representative
both ethnocentric and unrepresentative - small uni VS small australian
17 of 19
BANDURA VS CHANEY - applications
prevent violence VS improve medical compliance and health
18 of 19
BANDURA VS CHANEY - debates
nature/nurture - born aggressive/learn it, determinism - aggression determined by model VS situational - funhalers features cause its success
