Albert Bandura Albert Bandura based his theory on observasional learning and modeling behavior. Behaviorism is the study that Bandura was doing. For example the mental. Standard procedure is to manipulate one variable, and then measure its effects on another. All this is is a theory of personality that says that one’s environment causes one’s behavior. Bandura found this a bit too simple for the cases he was observing. He suggested that the environment causes behavior and behavior causes environment as well. The world and a person’s behavior cause each others behavior. Bandura did hundreds of studies. He was responsible for the bobo doll studies. He made of a young woman, beating up a bobo The woman would punch the clown. She kicked it, sat on it, hit with a little hammer, and so on, shouting various aggressive phrases. Bandura showed his film to groups of kindergartners who, as you might predict, liked it a lot. They then were let out to play. In the play room, of course, were several observers, a brand new bobo doll, and a few little hammers.
