Differential reinforcement is key as stimuli and contingencies for reinforcement vary across social situations
Vicarious reinforcement also can occur, one can copy behavior of others that is reinforced
Past schedules of reinforcements might come into play, although immediate reinforcement is strong predictor of a behavior
Objective: Compare and contrast Jeffery and Akers on the basic concepts of social learning theory
