    Self Regulation Theory

    Uploaded by

    Didem Karaosmanoğlu
    Bandura's self-regulation theory posits that behavior is regulated by both internal and external factors in a reciprocal relationship. Most behavior is controlled through self-regulation rather than external reinforcement. Self-regulation involves monitoring one's own behavior and adjusting it based on personal standards and comparisons to others. It develops from infancy through childhood as cognitive abilities mature and children learn to control impulses, emotions, and behaviors through imitation and internalization of external rules. Biological, environmental, and cognitive factors all influence the development of self-regulation skills.

    Self-Regulation

    Theory
    BANDURA, BAUMEISTER
    Bandura

     Albert Bandura (1925-) illustrates the


    transition from traditional behavioral
    views to incorporate internal variables
     For him, we are not passive recipients of
    rewards and punishment from the
    environment
     Bandura argues that there are both
    external and internal determinants of
    behavior- and these two sets interact in a
    mode that he labeled as reciprocal
    determinism.
    Self-Regulation

     Bandura also argues that most behavior is


    performed in the absence of external
    reinforcement and punishment.
     Most of our daily actions are controlled
    by self-regulation.
     We can „agree” or „disagree” with our
    own actions
     Positive reinforcement: positive
    emotions, satisfaction
     Negative reinforcement: negative
    emotions, regret
    Strategies in Self-
    Regulation
     Reactive strategies
     When people set a goal they wish to
    achieve (e.g. graduation), they reactively
    try to accomplish that goal.
     Proactive strategies
     When people achieved the particular
    goal, they can proactively set a new goal
    for themselves (based on the previous
    goal)
    Internal factors affecting
    Self-Regulation
     Self-Observation
     We regulate our behavior by monitoring our
    own performance and adjusting our behavior
    accordingly.
     In mastery situations: quality, quantity, speed
    and originality
     In interpersonal situations: sociability,
    morality
    Internal factors affecting
    Self-Regulation
     Judgmental Process
     Personal standards: evaluating our
    performance without comparing it to others
     Standard of Reference: comparing our
    performance to the performance of other or
    to a „norm”
     Performance attribution
     How we explain success and failure in our life
    What is Self-Regulation
    Theory?
     It is a system of conscious personal management
    that helps us control what w think, say and do.
     The self-system is the set of cognitive structures
    that involve perception, evaluation and
    regulation of behavior.
     This system allows us to evaluate our own
    behavior in terms of previous experience and
    anticipated future consequences.
    What is Self-Regulation
    Theory?
     Self-Regulation is an integrated learning
    process, consisting of the development of
    a set of constructive behaviors that affect
    one’s learning.
     These processes are planned and
    adapted to support the pursuit of
    personal goals in changing learning
    environment.
    Development of Self-
    Regulation
     Neurophysiological modulation
     Birth to 2-3 months
     Reflexes
     Sensorimotor modulation
     3 months - 9 months +
     Engage in voluntary motor acts (reach & grab,
    hand to mouth, etc.) and change that act in
    response to environmental demands
     No awareness of meaning of situation
    Development of Self-
    Regulation
     Control
     9-12 months to 18 + months
     Emerging ability of children to show awareness
    of social or task demands and modulate
    behavior/emotions
     E.g. compliance to demands
    Development of Self-
    Regulation
     Emergence of self-control and the
    progression to self-regulation
     24 + months
     Compliance, delay an act on request
     Representational thinking and recall memory
     Limited flexibility
     Self-regulation
     36 + months
     Flexibility!!!
    Emotion Regulation

     In addition to regulating behaviors,


    children must also regulate emotional
    experiences
     Development of emotion regulation
    abilities follows Kopp’s description of
    emergence of self-regulation
     Reflexes to flexible management
    Types of Self-Regulation

     Emotional self-control
     Based mainly on the ability to calm down in the
    face of anger and frustration
     Cognitive self-regulation
     Boils down to our problem-solving abilities
     Social self-control
     The ability to refrain from just saying whatever pops
    into our mind, especially when these thoughts
    involve negative opinion.
    Components of Self-
    Regulation (Baumeister, 2007)
     Standards: Of desirable behavior.
     Motivation: To meet standards.
     Monitoring: Of situations and thoughts
    that precede breaking standards.
     Willpower: Internal strength to control
    urges
    Factors influencing Self-
    Regulation
     Biological makeup
     Maturation of certain brain areas, especially
    the frontal lobes, enables children to resist
    interference and inhibit responses.
     Infancy
     Between age 4-7
     Adolescence

     Temperament
     Temperament is genetically determined, self
    regulatory behavior is linked mainly to
    behavioral inhibition, effortful control,
    fearfulness
    Factors influencing Self-
    Regulation
     Environment
     Though self-regulation is influenced by
    biological factors, it begins with external
    control by others and gradually becomes
    internalized (modelling  imitating,
    practicing, internalizing)
    Self-Control Therapy

     The ideas behind self-regulation have


    been incorporated into a therapy
    technique called self-control therapy. It
    has been successful with simple problems
    of habit, such as smoking, overeating and
    study habits.
     Tools:
     Behavioral charts
     Self-observation requires that you keep close
    tabs on your behavior, both before you begin
    changes and after.
    Self-Control Therapy

     Environmental planning
     Taking your lead from your behavioral charts
    and diaries, you can begin to alter your
    environment
     Self-contracts
     You arrange to reward yourself when you
    adheres to your plan, and possible punish
    yourself when you do not.
     These contracts should be written and
    witnessed, they have to be very explicit.
     EG. I will go out to dinner on Saturday night if I
    smoke fewer cigarettes this week than last
    week. I will do paperwork instead if I do not.
