INTERESTING FACTS Chance
Chance encounter with Psychology Bandura's decision to pursue psychology as a career choice happened by chance. Due to his
humble origins, he had to travel early with other students in a car pool despite that his classes
began much later. Bandura would often try to find something to keep him occupied till his
classes started. Pajares (2004) quotes in his biographical sketch, "One morning, I was wasting
time in the library. Someone had forgotten to return a course catalog and I thumbed through it
attempting to find a filler course to occupy the early time slot. I noticed a course in
psychology that would serve as excellent filler. It sparked my interest and I found my career."
Thus, Bandura who originally had though of taking up biological sciences to major in took
the psychology class, became so fascinated with the discipline that he decided to concentrate
on it as a career option.

One of the most interesting studies that Albert Bandura carried out was on the inflated “Bobo
dolls”. Till 1950’s there was a popular belief that learning was an outcome of reinforcement.
Through these experiments Bandura and his colleagues explained that, “social modeling” is
rather a more effective way of learning.
