Bandura, Ross and Ross
Aim:
Laboratory studies known as Bobo doll studies to examine the effect of a violent model on children's behaviour

Children then allowed to play with toys, including the Bobo doll (20 minutes)
All children were able to reproduce most of the aggressive acts shown by the model, even if model was punished (lowest level of imitation)

Biological Approach
AO1
Genotype and phenotype
-
Phenotype: The way these genes are expressed through physical, behavioural and psychological characteristics
Bio-psychologists believe that most human behaviour depends on interaction between inherited factors and the environment (nature vs nurture)
Evolution and behaviour
The idea that any behaviour that benefits a species and has helped it to survive will continue in future generations
Genetics
Behavioural characteristics e.g: intelligence personality, mental disorders
-
Chemistry of the body
Varying levels of chemicals found in the brain (neurotransmitters) and body (hormones) are thought to also be responsible for an individual's behaviour
