Who was Albert Bandura and why was he concerned about what children viewed on television

Albert Bandura is a renowned psychologist who contributed two main theories to the field of psychology: the social learning theory and the theory of self-efficacy. However, he is most well-known for his "Bobo Doll experiment." The Bobo doll experiment was an experiment in which children viewed a researcher behave aggressively towards a Bobo doll. When the researcher left the room, the kids in the experimental group (who viewed the aggressive researcher) were more likely to behave aggressively towards the doll. This suggests that aggression, especially in children, can be linked to the act of social learning. Therefore, Bandura was concerned that the violence and bad behavior portrayed on television could influence children to model it.
