George Kelly • Personal Constructs • Constructive Alternativism • Convenience • Heirarchy of constructs
Rotter • The “psychological situation” • Behavior Potential BP= f( E + RV ) • Expectancies • Reinforcement Value • Locus of Control
Bandura • Observational learning • Self-regulation • Self-efficacy • Reciprocal interactionism
Self-regulation Reinforcement has no direct effects (cognitively mediated or even vicarious) Self-reinforcement is as important as external (internalized standards and processes of reward and punishment) ***Self-regulation overcomes stimulus control
Self-efficacy • 2 types of expectancies Outcome expectancy Self-efficacy • SE determines: behavior to be performed amount of effort expended persistence in the face of adversity, etc.
Reciprocal interactionism or Reciprocal Determinism • selecting environments • creating environments • transforming environments
Mischel and CAPS theory • basic principles, concepts, assumptions: • focus on P X S interaction • include and integrate Cognitive, Emotional, Motivational, Biological & Environmental factors
Mischel and CAPS theory • CAUs ( person variables) 1. Encodings (cognitive constructions) 2. Expectancies ( “if-then” behavior-outcome, self-efficacy) 3. Affects 4. Goals and Values 5. Competencies and Self-regulation
Mischel cont. • Personality coherence individual differences in the “chronic accessibility”of CAUs ***consistency of variability across situations
Mischel cont. • Relative impact of person variables and situation variables (when does which take precedent?) • greater ambiguity and “response freedom” greater influence of person variables (indiv. diff.)
The self • I & me • Self-schemas (Markus, etc.) readily accessible schema • Multiple selves: (Markus, Higgins, etc.) • Self-discrepancies (Higgins: Actual, Ideal, Ought)
Causal Attributions • Helplessness • Pessimism and Optimism Pessimism: Stable, Global, due to the Self Optimism: Fleeting, Specific, not due to personal flaw Optimists are healthier, happier, and live longer
