observe a role model (person in position of power that is typically older) and imitate this exact behaviour
1 of 9
explain ARRM
attention (watching the action), retention (have capacity to remember how to repeat the behaviour), reproduction (can physically repeat the behaviour), motivation (have a reason to repeat the behaviour)
2 of 9
types of motivation
self motivation (e.g. exhilaration from stealing a car), vicarious reinforcement (see someone else rewarded for a behaviour), external motivation (get a free car by stealing it)
3 of 9
reductionist
doesn't take into account other causes of crime e.g. genetic (ignores Raine's research)
4 of 9
lab experiment data (strength)
lots of it: reliable because clear cause and effect.
5 of 9
applicability
applicable to preventing recidivism: positive role models in prison settings
6 of 9
evidence: bandura
children imitated exact aggressive behaviour - evidence for this theory in a reliable piece of research
7 of 9
doesn't explain
opportunistic crime - crime that hasn't been learnt but that people commit just by chance
8 of 9
lab experiment data (weakness)
this data typically lacks ecological validity so it cannot be sure that this theory is valid in terms of representing real life behaviour
