Social Cognitive Theory

Social Cognitive Theory is an idea when people learn through observation and apply it into mass media, especially television programs.This theory argues that people imitate the behavior they see; and modeling happens in two ways,imitation and identification.
I personaly have experience this.Since i was young, i don't go for swimming.Swimming is the scariestthing that I had ever done.I cant understand why my neighbour love to go swimming. Aren't they afraid of the jaws???The thought that disturb me is that the Jaws will eat me when I go swimming. The movie "Jaws" makes me feel  insecurs in the swimming pool. Until now i don't  swim, even when  I go to beach I will just sit on the sand, away from the  water.

Isn't it scary??
