social-cognitive reinforcement

this assignment you will have the opportunity to apply these theories and concepts to a current debate about the impact of media on behavior and personality.

Unit 8 Assignment: This week you will complete a 2–3-page expository paper exploring how the environment, reinforcement and social-cognitive theory can work together to influence behavior. Then you will apply that knowledge to the impact of media on behavior and actions in personality development.

• Discuss how the environment, reinforcement, and social-cognitive theory can work together to change behavior.
• Use information about reinforcement and the social cognitive theory to determine if there should be concern about the content of television programs and movies. (Can it impact behavior?)
• Provide reliable research to support your view.
