Review of chapters of the book: Social Foundations of Thought

and Action, A Social Cognitive Theory by Albert Bandura

Chapter one

In this chapter the introduction to the book's themes addressed, talk about that

over the years many theorists have tried to explain how human behavior, which is

influenced by our environment works, as well as our cognitive processing.

He explains the theories of Freud and Skinner in his attempt to explain human

behavior, and its epistemology. nding !andura theory explaining that both the

environment and personal factors "disorders, cognitive processes and biological

events# are responsible for our behavior. $hey are however, also mentions that the

environment is a pre%established social construction but is experienced personally.

Chapter twoIn this chapter we explained what the observational learning, which is one process

that watching others learn certain things that then apply in our behavior, and

explains that most of our learning is done in this way. For this learning model "who

will copy the behavior#, modeling "what we learn# and the meme "which contains

modeling, ideas, behaviors, tastes# you are needed.

It is carried out in & steps, attention, retention, production, incentive and motivation.

Chapter three

 ccording to the theory of !andura, actions have effects that translate to results,which produce themselves and thus learning new behavioral structures, this is key

to understanding human behavior.

$he thought is structured by rules, which govern how we act, and that the results

from more positive and attached to the rules are, the more they will be kept in our

mind until you perform automatic. (f course this will always be sub)ect to feedback,

which will improve the *uality of our actions. $his process is called +inctive

learning+ and is built by factors- the antecedent, the Stimul and the response to

onse*uences.

!ut there is also an important part and is the self%awareness. /hich is governed by

social influences, allows metacognition is an important skill in processing

information, this process is called eneactive learning and is different because it is

done on a conscious level and gives the opportunity to distinguish whether the

process was right or wrong.

Chapter four 

$his chapter talks about how an idea or behavior spreads in a society, then even

lead to other societies, this mediated by the media and technologies of our era.

$his is thanks to the constant search for innovation by humans, then it is innovation

expands communication channels with the help of time and manages to changesocial systems.

Chapter five

$his chapter was explained by us, so I understand that it was only exhibitions of

my colleagues, I chose to leave this blank.

Chapter si

$his chapter discusses the issue of incentive motivators. s that defined as a

behavior that I will be present with more or less fre*uently, these can be based on

biological and cognitive processes "symbolic representations, internal standards,and personal assessments#.

$he same incentives are divided into categories- primary needs, sensory, social

and monetary.

However, there are variations in the structure of these incentives, for example, an

incentive not have the same power in an individual to a group area, mutual support

social help much in some cases, they go through a process where they ac*uire,

generali0e and stabili0ed in social practice.

Chapter seven:

Here we talk about the vicars motivators because they are an important part when

talking about human behavior. 1ost of our behaviors are learned because we

observe the behavior of others, as well as its conse*uence.

$his allows us to be involved to risk less of a negative or dangerous situation, and

people like to do things that they know will result.
