The origins of psychology can be traced back to well-known
philosophers such as Plato, Aristotle, and Hippocrates who all
philosophized that the human temperament or behaviors were
associated with a set of complex traits. In early years, Psychology was
considered to be an ancient philosophy routed in theories and assumed
perceptions of human behavior and mental processes (Airenti, 2019).
In the late 1800’s Wilhelm Wundt, a German Theorist, would develop
the formal discipline of psychology through experiments conducted
with the intention to quantify thoughts or objectively measure the
thoughts and behaviors of an individual (Uher, 2021). This discipline
of psychology was considered to be structuralism. Later the second
discipline of psychology, functionalism, would be developed by
William James who focused on behaviors as a consciousness
(Baumeister & Finkel, 2010).
Psychology has proven to be a constant evolution through works of
individuals such as Sigmund Freud’s Psychoanalytic theory which
theorized repressed memories within the unconscious mind affected
behavior development (Schwarz & Pfister, 2016). The works of Kurt
Lewin, reviewal of an experience in it entirely in order to better
understand social interactions and Alberta Bandera’s cognitive
learning theory which postulated we learn on perception or direct
experience (Airenti, 2019). These are just a few reflections of the field
of psychology throughout history and reflects the changing
perspective on understanding human behavior. Social Psychology,
which began to evolve in the late 1900’s and early 20th century as one
of the seven schools of psychology, is the study of how interactions
with others influences the thoughts, behaviors and feelings of
individuals (Stagnor, 2011).
There is no one individual that can be individually credited for the
development of psychology and its principles over history. Alberta
Bandura’s Social Learning Theory is significant to the evolution of
social psychology as it explained how people learn new behaviors
from observations and imitations. The works of Bandura was built of
the original works of Miller and Donald, Sears and Rotter, who
focused on the factors that influenced human social behaviors. These
lOMoARcPSD|61746433
factors included the assumption that individuals do better when there
is potential for achievements or goals to be met (Strickland, 2014).
Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the
cognitive learning theories of Tolman , Lewin , and Hull reinforced
the idea that a specific behavior led to particular outcomes or
reinforcers and were motivated by observations. Having knowledge of
social psychology’s history is imperative to the comprehensive
analysis of classic and modern social psychology theories and
research as it the history sets a n foundation for which further
understanding is to be built upon.
Its imperative to understand how not only psychology as whole has
developed but how each of it individuals disciplines have developed.
It give others a basic insight into what has been successful or needs to
be further discussed within the theories. Modern Theories are
generally developed from the research of classical theories and intend
to address or identify where classical theories fall short. In social
Psychology this is reflected by the addition of factors such as
economic changes, laws, cultures, and biological changes that have
been seem to occur over history within society. Furthermore, a
historical perspective on social psychology is beneficial to researchers
as it allows for am in-depth review of the methodological
advancements and overall growth within the theoretical frameworks.

behavior development (Schwarz & Pfister, 2016). The works of Kurt

social psychology as it explained how people learn new behaviors
from observations and imitations. The works of Bandura was built of
the original works of Miller and Donald, Sears and Rotter, who
focused on the factors that influenced human social behaviors. These
factors included the assumption that individuals do better when there
is potential for achievements or goals to be met (Strickland, 2014).
Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the
cognitive learning theories of Tolman , Lewin , and Hull reinforced
the idea that a specific behavior led to particular outcomes or
reinforcers and were motivated by observations. Having knowledge of

Psychology has proven to be a constant evolution through works of
individuals such as Sigmund Freud’s Psychoanalytic theory which
theorized repressed memories within the unconscious mind affected
behavior development (Schwarz & Pfister, 2016). The works of Kurt
Lewin, reviewal of an experience in it entirely in order to better
understand social interactions and Alberta Bandera’s cognitive
learning theory which postulated we learn on perception or direct
experience (Airenti, 2019). These are just a few reflections of the field
of psychology throughout history and reflects the changing
perspective on understanding human behavior. Social Psychology,
which began to evolve in the late 1900’s and early 20th century as one
of the seven schools of psychology, is the study of how interactions
with others influences the thoughts, behaviors and feelings of
individuals (Stagnor, 2011).

Bandura’s Social Learning Theory is significant to the evolution of
social psychology as it explained how people learn new behaviors
from observations and imitations. The works of Bandura was built of
the original works of Miller and Donald, Sears and Rotter, who
focused on the factors that influenced human social behaviors. These
factors included the assumption that individuals do better when there
is potential for achievements or goals to be met (Strickland, 2014).
Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the
cognitive learning theories of Tolman , Lewin , and Hull reinforced
the idea that a specific behavior led to particular outcomes or
reinforcers and were motivated by observations. Having knowledge of
social psychology’s history is imperative to the comprehensive
analysis of classic and modern social psychology theories and
research as it the history sets a n foundation for which further
understanding is to be built upon.

developed but how each of it individuals disciplines have developed.

theorized repressed memories within the unconscious mind affected
behavior development (Schwarz & Pfister, 2016). The works of Kurt
Lewin, reviewal of an experience in it entirely in order to better
understand social interactions and Alberta Bandera’s cognitive
learning theory which postulated we learn on perception or direct
experience (Airenti, 2019). These are just a few reflections of the field
of psychology throughout history and reflects the changing
perspective on understanding human behavior. Social Psychology,
which began to evolve in the late 1900’s and early 20th century as one
of the seven schools of psychology, is the study of how interactions
with others influences the thoughts, behaviors and feelings of
individuals (Stagnor, 2011).

Bandura’s Social Learning Theory is significant to the evolution of
social psychology as it explained how people learn new behaviors
from observations and imitations. The works of Bandura was built of
the original works of Miller and Donald, Sears and Rotter, who
focused on the factors that influenced human social behaviors. These
factors included the assumption that individuals do better when there
is potential for achievements or goals to be met (Strickland, 2014).
Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the
cognitive learning theories of Tolman , Lewin , and Hull reinforced
the idea that a specific behavior led to particular outcomes or
reinforcers and were motivated by observations. Having knowledge of
social psychology’s history is imperative to the comprehensive
analysis of classic and modern social psychology theories and
research as it the history sets a n foundation for which further
understanding is to be built upon.
Its imperative to understand how not only psychology as whole has
developed but how each of it individuals disciplines have developed.
It give others a basic insight into what has been successful or needs to
be further discussed within the theories. Modern Theories are
generally developed from the research of classical theories and intend
to address or identify where classical theories fall short. In social
Psychology this is reflected by the addition of factors such as
economic changes, laws, cultures, and biological changes that have
been seem to occur over history within society. Furthermore, a
historical perspective on social psychology is beneficial to researchers
as it allows for am in-depth review of the methodological
advancements and overall growth within the theoretical frameworks.

Bandura’s Social Learning Theory is significant to the evolution of
social psychology as it explained how people learn new behaviors
from observations and imitations. The works of Bandura was built of
the original works of Miller and Donald, Sears and Rotter, who
focused on the factors that influenced human social behaviors. These
factors included the assumption that individuals do better when there
is potential for achievements or goals to be met (Strickland, 2014).
Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the
cognitive learning theories of Tolman , Lewin , and Hull reinforced
the idea that a specific behavior led to particular outcomes or
reinforcers and were motivated by observations. Having knowledge of
social psychology’s history is imperative to the comprehensive
analysis of classic and modern social psychology theories and
research as it the history sets a n foundation for which further
understanding is to be built upon.
Its imperative to understand how not only psychology as whole has
developed but how each of it individuals disciplines have developed.
It give others a basic insight into what has been successful or needs to
be further discussed within the theories. Modern Theories are
generally developed from the research of classical theories and intend
to address or identify where classical theories fall short. In social
Psychology this is reflected by the addition of factors such as
economic changes, laws, cultures, and biological changes that have
been seem to occur over history within society. Furthermore, a
historical perspective on social psychology is beneficial to researchers
as it allows for am in-depth review of the methodological
advancements and overall growth within the theoretical frameworks.
Psychology has proven to be a constant evolution through works of
individuals such as Sigmund Freud’s Psychoanalytic theory which
lOMoARcPSD|61746433
theorized repressed memories within the unconscious mind affected
behavior development (Schwarz & Pfister, 2016). The works of Kurt
Lewin, reviewal of an experience in it entirely in order to better

Bandura’s Social Learning Theory is significant to the evolution of
social psychology as it explained how people learn new behaviors
from observations and imitations. The works of Bandura was built of
the original works of Miller and Donald, Sears and Rotter, who
focused on the factors that influenced human social behaviors. These
factors included the assumption that individuals do better when there
is potential for achievements or goals to be met (Strickland, 2014).
Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the
cognitive learning theories of Tolman , Lewin , and Hull reinforced
the idea that a specific behavior led to particular outcomes or
reinforcers and were motivated by observations. Having knowledge of
social psychology’s history is imperative to the comprehensive
analysis of classic and modern social psychology theories and
research as it the history sets a n foundation for which further
understanding is to be built upon.
Its imperative to understand how not only psychology as whole has
developed but how each of it individuals disciplines have developed.
It give others a basic insight into what has been successful or needs to
be further discussed within the theories. Modern Theories are
generally developed from the research of classical theories and intend
to address or identify where classical theories fall short. In social
Psychology this is reflected by the addition of factors such as
economic changes, laws, cultures, and biological changes that have
been seem to occur over history within society. Furthermore, a
historical perspective on social psychology is beneficial to researchers
as it allows for am in-depth review of the methodological
advancements and overall growth within the theoretical frameworks.
Psychology has proven to be a constant evolution through works of
individuals such as Sigmund Freud’s Psychoanalytic theory which
lOMoARcPSD|61746433
theorized repressed memories within the unconscious mind affected
behavior development (Schwarz & Pfister, 2016). The works of Kurt
Lewin, reviewal of an experience in it entirely in order to better
understand social interactions and Alberta Bandera’s cognitive
learning theory which postulated we learn on perception or direct
experience (Airenti, 2019). These are just a few reflections of the field
of psychology throughout history and reflects the changing
perspective on understanding human behavior. Social Psychology,

Bandura’s Social Learning Theory is significant to the evolution of
social psychology as it explained how people learn new behaviors
from observations and imitations. The works of Bandura was built of
the original works of Miller and Donald, Sears and Rotter, who
focused on the factors that influenced human social behaviors. These
factors included the assumption that individuals do better when there
is potential for achievements or goals to be met (Strickland, 2014).
Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the
cognitive learning theories of Tolman , Lewin , and Hull reinforced
the idea that a specific behavior led to particular outcomes or
reinforcers and were motivated by observations. Having knowledge of
social psychology’s history is imperative to the comprehensive
analysis of classic and modern social psychology theories and
research as it the history sets a n foundation for which further
understanding is to be built upon.
Its imperative to understand how not only psychology as whole has
developed but how each of it individuals disciplines have developed.
It give others a basic insight into what has been successful or needs to
be further discussed within the theories. Modern Theories are
generally developed from the research of classical theories and intend
to address or identify where classical theories fall short. In social
Psychology this is reflected by the addition of factors such as
economic changes, laws, cultures, and biological changes that have
been seem to occur over history within society. Furthermore, a
historical perspective on social psychology is beneficial to researchers
as it allows for am in-depth review of the methodological
advancements and overall growth within the theoretical frameworks.
Psychology has proven to be a constant evolution through works of
individuals such as Sigmund Freud’s Psychoanalytic theory which
lOMoARcPSD|61746433
theorized repressed memories within the unconscious mind affected
behavior development (Schwarz & Pfister, 2016). The works of Kurt
Lewin, reviewal of an experience in it entirely in order to better
understand social interactions and Alberta Bandera’s cognitive
learning theory which postulated we learn on perception or direct
experience (Airenti, 2019). These are just a few reflections of the field
of psychology throughout history and reflects the changing
perspective on understanding human behavior. Social Psychology,
which began to evolve in the late 1900’s and early 20th century as one
of the seven schools of psychology, is the study of how interactions
with others influences the thoughts, behaviors and feelings of
individuals (Stagnor, 2011).

Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the
cognitive learning theories of Tolman , Lewin , and Hull reinforced
the idea that a specific behavior led to particular outcomes or
reinforcers and were motivated by observations. Having knowledge of

experience (Airenti, 2019). These are just a few reflections of the field

Bandura’s Social Learning Theory is significant to the evolution of
social psychology as it explained how people learn new behaviors
from observations and imitations. The works of Bandura was built of
the original works of Miller and Donald, Sears and Rotter, who
focused on the factors that influenced human social behaviors. These
factors included the assumption that individuals do better when there
is potential for achievements or goals to be met (Strickland, 2014).
Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the

Psychology has proven to be a constant evolution through works of
individuals such as Sigmund Freud’s Psychoanalytic theory which

theorized repressed memories within the unconscious mind affected
behavior development (Schwarz & Pfister, 2016). The works of Kurt
Lewin, reviewal of an experience in it entirely in order to better
understand social interactions and Alberta Bandera’s cognitive
learning theory which postulated we learn on perception or direct
experience (Airenti, 2019). These are just a few reflections of the field
of psychology throughout history and reflects the changing
perspective on understanding human behavior. Social Psychology,
which began to evolve in the late 1900’s and early 20th century as one
of the seven schools of psychology, is the study of how interactions
with others influences the thoughts, behaviors and feelings of
individuals (Stagnor, 2011).
There is no one individual that can be individually credited for the
development of psychology and its principles over history. Alberta
Bandura’s Social Learning Theory is significant to the evolution of
social psychology as it explained how people learn new behaviors
from observations and imitations. The works of Bandura was built of
the original works of Miller and Donald, Sears and Rotter, who
focused on the factors that influenced human social behaviors. These
factors included the assumption that individuals do better when there
is potential for achievements or goals to be met (Strickland, 2014).
Bandura’s social learning proposed that learning involves four factors:
attention, retention, reproduction and motivation. It suggested that
social behavior was learned by observation and imitation of other
behaviors rather than strictly on their environment and that these
imitations aided in the development of social behaviors. Similarly, the
cognitive learning theories of Tolman , Lewin , and Hull reinforced
the idea that a specific behavior led to particular outcomes or
reinforcers and were motivated by observations. Having knowledge of
social psychology’s history is imperative to the comprehensive
analysis of classic and modern social psychology theories and
research as it the history sets a n foundation for which further
understanding is to be built upon.
Its imperative to understand how not only psychology as whole has
