3) Read the following cases and classify them as behavioral, cognitive or social learning theory and give a brief justification for your answer a. Suppose a one-year old child is playing with a toy near an electric out-let. He sticks part of the toy into the out-let. He gets shocked, becomes frightened, and begins to cry. For several days after that experience, he shows fear when his mother gives him the toy and he refuses to play with it. (3 points)
b. Every time the wife makes her husband's favorite dish, he gets into a good mood and takes her out for a romantic evening. (3 points)
c. When the first kid starts crying because of the pain of the needle piercing through his/her body, all kids down the line start to cry and eventually, every kid on the line is crying even before they see the needle because they associate it with an illness. (3 points)

The correct theory for scenario A is Cognitive Learning theory.

The correct theory for scenario B is Behavioral Learning theory.

The correct theory for scenario C is Social Learning theory.

Cognitive learning theory focuses on the mental thoughts that go through an individual's mind and how they are affected by both internal and external factors. The one-year-old child has fear ingrained in his mind even after some days have passed because of his external experiences.

Behavioral learning theory is based on the idea that people learn through interaction with their environments. Positive and Negative reinforcements play additional roles for they can motivate or water down a person's desire to continue a particular act. We see this learning theory in the second scenario where the husband positively reinforces his wife's act by taking her out. This will motivate the woman to repeat the act.

The Social learning theory proposed by Albert Bandura is based on the fact that people tend to learn by observing the behaviors, attitudes, and emotional responses of others. In the third scenario, all the kids in the line started crying because they learned through observation that the needle was painful.

Conclusively, cognitive, behavioral, and social learning theories apply to scenarios A, B, and C respectively.
