My opinion of Albert Bandura and how and if his theory is still valuable today
I think Bandura's theory was very important in understanding behaviors and why we behave in certain ways. His theories have been the starting point of learning behavior and I believe they are still important today. I believe Bandura’s work has been turning point. It started a shift in the field of psychology to the idea that personality is shaped by the interaction of behavior, environment and innate psychological makeup—rather than any one of those factors being paramount. With his social learning theory, he has changed the world of psychology for the better.
