VCAA Sample Exam questions 6b&c

[vashappenin]

Hey all,
I know I've asked this before in another thread, and others have probably asked it too, but I need a finalised answer, because I've heard different answers!

Question 6
In observational learning there is a stage where learning has occurred, but the behaviour has not yet been
shown by the learner.
b. Which of the processes involved in observational learning occurs to elicit the behaviour to be shown?
c. Which of the processes involved in observational learning must occur if the behaviour is to be repeated by the learner?

So can someone please give me a definite answer with justification?


 Thanks soooo much in advance!!!!

[Oliver_123]

Yeah im unsure as well

But I think that b it is motivation as the they must be motivated or have some incentive to want to elicit the behaviour

and for c i think it is reinforcement as the person needs to receive praise or gratification or some form of reinforcement  if they are to repeat the behaviour, eg not going to repeat it if they are punished

[vashappenin]

Ok thanks..that's what I was thinking too!
I really need a final answer though!! Anybody?

Latent learning.
Attention
Reinforcement-motivation.
 

[Oliver_123]

I dont think you would say latent learning as it says process involved in observational learning?

[vashappenin]

Attention
Reinforcement-motivation.

Can you please justify why? Haha sorry to be a pain, but I'm just really confused

I think she meant for 6a

That is the answer to question 6A

What form of learning has occurred before the behavior is shown?
- Latent Learning

Attention
Reinforcement-motivation.

SORRY I MIXED THEM UP! 
b) is reinforcement-motivation because one needs to have a reason to perform the behaviour
c) is attention because if you don't pay attention none of the other steps will occur.

[sandi]

wait..i thought that it would be the reproduction stage???because thats where the behaviour is shown....

But how can one reproduce the behaviour without it been attended to?

[Oliver_123]

I think b is reproduction
and c is motivation reinforcement

[joseph95]

c) is attention because if you don't pay attention none of the other steps will occur.

That's true but you still need the other steps for observational learning as well, just because you attend to behaviour doesn't mean you're learning anything.
So I think here the emphasis is on "repeated," meaning reinforcement.
But it's a poorly worded question

It can easily be a few answers, which is what bothers me.
