Jan 15, 2012 - this is a load of bullshit. Bandura is an idiot. 1. the doll is designed to be hit2, it's not a real person, nor does it look like a real person.3. the kids shown that they should hit the doll. may have seen it as a game. . none violent children hit dolls and are violent in play. it doesn't mean they are aggressive. it's called roll play. 4. we have no idea of the kids backgrounds.5. what was the point of this study? to show that kids learn to be violent from the tv.

Rowan07001484 Says:

Jan 15, 2012 - no they don't. anyone who knows children, understands that they don't see dolls as being real at all. they can tell the difference between what is living and what isn't by age 2. they are playing. roll play about their life, or what they feel, or see around them. if their home life is violent, they use props, like dolls to act it out. most toddlers, would know not to attack a real baby, for example. although they might lash out at them. they can tell the difference.

Jan 15, 2012 - A toddler can understand the simple needs of real babies. they will offer a dummy if the baby is crying and do simple things to cheer them up. with a doll... they will handle it carelessly, one minute, and the next pretend it is a real baby. they understand that it is not alive. the reason why they pretend dolls/teddies are real is because it is part of their development. it's part of play. they are learning to understand adult life. acting out what we do.

Jan 16, 2012 - this experiment literally proves nothing. put anyone in a room with a bobo doll and they will hit it. Sociologists are such pessimists.

Jan 17, 2012 - Switch the doll with a real person and the experiment might have som validity

Jan 25, 2012 - pay attention in english, you've 'gots' to lol if you want to pass of your second rate language skills with the beautiful word english behind it. please just say american or something

ArranRWilliamson Says:

Jan 25, 2012 - why would you hit it ? well due to the significant difference in the violance shown by the children that watched the adults that got punished from the adults that didnt get punished. It has a lot of relavence for the subjectability of a child to different reinforcements. would you hit a bobo doll after you saw the last person get shot because of it...And you cant prove anything in science you can only support and disprove

Jan 30, 2012 - When i was little, I had a bobo doll too. I did the exact same thing to it because it really fustrates you. It doesnt move and it comes back once you start touching it. Its very annoying

JustIshwar Says:

Mar 18, 2012 - They taught kids violence.. I love this era! hahaha xD

MrJuliust85 Says:

Mar 20, 2012 - They taught kids aggression; we taught kids violence.

MrBrassBaller Says:

Apr 19, 2012 - but these kids would have hit this doll regardless of having watched someone else model the hitting. It was a clown toy designed to be hit...

Edaburgh Says:

May 13, 2012 - Half of the study group of children were in an 'non-aggressive model' where they did not see an adult hit the doll, these children did not even pay attention to the Bobo doll when left alone to play.

May 13, 2012 - ummm even if i saw a bobo doll and didn't witness the lady being agressive with it, i'd be agressive with it
