  There is a second element at work in this situation. The child may be able to attain hisimmediate goal only io find that his method brings criticism from people who observe him.When shouting across the house achieves his immediate end of delivering a message. be istold emphatically that such a racket (叫嚷) is unpleasant, that he should walk into the nextroom and say his say quietly. Thus. the desire to solve any objective situation is overlaid withthe desire to solve it properly. One of the early things the child leamsis that he gets moreaffection and approval when his parents like his response. Then other adults award someactions and criticize others. If one is to maintain the support of others and his own self-respect, he must adopt responses his social group approves.

  In finding trial responses. the learner does not choose models at random. He imitates theperson who seemsa good person to be like. rather than a person whose social status hewished to avoid. If the pupil wants to be good violinist, he will observe and try to copy thetechniques of capable players;while some other person may most influence his approach tobooks.

  Admiration of one quality often leads us to admire a person as a whole. and he becomes anidentifying figure. We use some people as models over a wide range of situations. imitatingmuch that they do. We leam that they are dependable and rewarding models becauseimitating them leads to success.

  [1]断言孩子们通过模仿来学习。而教育的方式就是树立好的榜样,这是把问题过于简单化了。没有一个孩子是看到什么就模仿什么的。有时,他无视家长希望他效仿的榜样,反而向其他榜样学一些截然相反的方式。[l]照此我们应当放弃“小猴看样学样”的观点,转而探索更深奥的理论。

  从孩子的立场来看看这个问题。他处于新情况下,没有形成现成的反应。[2]他寻找一个能够实现一定目的的反应。如果他对这一新情况既没有现成反应,又不能想出该怎么去做,他会选择一个榜样来观察,这个榜样看起来能获得正确的结果,他会寻找一个能指导他如何去做的权威或专家。

  这种情况下还有一种因素在起作用。[3]孩子们也许能够立刻实现他们的直接目标,却发现他的这种做法遭到其监护人的批评。当他隔着屋子大声喊叫着传话的时候,他被极力告诫叫嚷是不礼貌的,他应当走进隔壁房间,安静地说。这样一来,单纯应付客观情况的愿望就被恰当处理该情况的愿望压倒。孩子们较早就知道的事情之一就是,当他的父母满意他的反应时,他就会得到更多的关爱和表扬。后来进一步得知别的大人奖励一些行为而批评另一些行为。[3]如果一个人想要保持自尊和别人对他的支持,他就必须采取被其所处的社会团体认同的反应。

  [5]在寻找可行的反应时,学习者不会随便选择模仿对象。[4]他模仿那些看上去值得效仿的人,而避免模仿那些社会身份他自己并不认同的人。如果这个学生想成为一个卓越的小提琴手,他就会观察并模仿一个出色琴手的技巧,而另外某个人则最可能影响他接近书籍。

  [5]对一个人某一方面品质的崇拜常常使我从整体上崇拜这个人,于是他成了名人。我们把一些人当成各种情形下模仿的对象,模仿他们的一举一动。我们知道他们是可靠、值得模仿的对象,因为模仿他们可以走向成功。
