Behaviorism focuses on observable behavior shaped by environmental forces. Learning occurs when there is a change in the form or frequency of observable performance.
Behavioral orientation
Cognitive processes such as thinking, problem solving, language, and concept formation are stressed in the cognitive approach. Learning is equated with discrete changes between states of knowledge rather than in the probability of response.
Cognitive orientation
Humanist theories consider learning from the perspective of the human potential for growth.

Social learning theory is a system of thought based on imitation or modeling. Ban- dura postulated that one can learn from observation without having to imitate what was observed.

The four main assumptions of changes in self-concept, role of experience,

Adult Learning Outcome
The transtheoretical model (TTM) of behavior change suggests that people go through change as a process over time and that receptivity to information is dependent on the stage of
change in which the person is in.
