Type of Theory
Albert Bandura's Social Learning Theory is both a behavioural and cognitive theory because Bandura effectively links behaviour and intellect with personality and development. Bandura not only focusses on behavioural development and cognitive development independently, but he focusses on how the two are intertwined and influence each other. Bandura's theory demonstrates on how there are cognitive, behavioural and environmental influences which affect development. Bandura effectively shows these influences through his Social Learning Theory.
