The first part of this article introduces the work engagement concept in a framework of the Job Demands-Resources Theory and discusses a relation between work engagement and job crafting. Next, the author presents the hypothesis that university education can form engaged employees by enhancing students’ self-efficacy beliefs about their ability to effectively crafting their future job environments. On the basis of the Social Learning Theory the author proposed three possible methods on how the university community could promote job crafting behaviors among students. These methods are: trainings and persuasions, modeling, or observation of how university top researchers work, and allowing students to experience success in changing different aspects of the university environment.

In this paper Facebook is examined as an educational tool that can be used to facilitate the development of literacy skills. The philosophical assumptions underlying the Social Development Theory by Vygotsky and the Social Learning Theory by Bandura were used to substantiate the benefits students can gain from learning in a social environment such as Facebook. Librarians can help students to develop their literacy skills, by using the Literature Circle on facebook. Assigning readers roles such as literary luminary, synthesizer, analyzer, and evaluator and rotating these roles will allow readers to develop the various literacy skills overtime and to avoid monotony.

Objective - The purpose of this paper is to identify knowledge and attitude on preventive behaviour of the Zika disease. Using the Social Learning Theory, the present study aims: (1) to evaluate levels of knowledge, attitude and preventive behaviour on Zika disease; (2) to examine the relationship between knowledge and attitude with preventive behaviour; and (3) to determine the best predictor for Zika preventive behaviour. Methodology/Technique - This study employs the quantitative research design using the survey method. Data are collected using the self-administered questionnaire. A total of 207 students from a public university participated in the study. Findings – The levels of knowledge, attitude and preventive behaviour are high. There are positive correlations among knowledge, attitude and preventive behaviour. Attitude is the best predictor for preventive behaviour. With knowledge and positive attitude towards the disease, the preventive behaviours are practiced. Novelty - Very limited studies have been done in Malaysia regarding the Zika disease. This study provides valuable insights of knowledge and attitude that influence prevention behaviour of the disease especially among university students. Type of Paper - Empirical Keywords: Malaysia; Mosquito-borne Disease; Social Learning Theory; Students; Zika. JEL Classification: I12, I21.

The study discusses homosexuality in Ghana. It has analyzed the interdisciplinary views of science, the social learning theory and religion on the phenomenon. The approach is mainly qualitative involving both individual and group interviews. Individual and group informants were respectively selected using purposeful and availability sampling designs in institutions, towns/cities, and secret homosexual parties. The findings were that homosexuality in Ghana portrays a learnt behavior; it is not genetically caused as some claim. Religiously, the phenomenon is seen as a sinful act. The study suggests ways that homosexuals can be helped to overcome their situation. The study is important because it highlights the state of homosexuality in Ghana and suggests helpful ways of dealing with it. It also contributes to existing local and global debates on the phenomenon.

<span><em>Being a good leader is a result of learning. A good leader criterion </em><span><em>in most of people’s head is either success in completing organizational tasks or </em><span><em>beloved by most of members. That criterion is really difficult to be learned and </em><span><em>then be internalized. Based on the social learning theory, one learns to be a leader </em><span><em>through observation process as the first step. In daily activity, there are many </em><span><em>leaders but only certain leader who is observed about his or her behaviors in detail. </em><span><em>That observed leader usually success in completing organizational tasks and also </em><span><em>beloved by his or her members. After observation, the next process is memorizing </em><span><em>those behaviors. The next stage is trying to produce those behaviors. This third </em><span><em>step can be achieved through leadership training. In that training, one is motivated </em><span><em>to produce and imitate those behaviors. After training, one can practice the new </em><span><em>leadership behaviors in daily activity if he or she receives behavior reinforcements. </em><span><em>Because of those reinforcements, the new leadership behaviors will be his or her </em><span><em>good habits. Actually, in that leadership training, one can learn either being a good </em><span><em>leader or good member. Being a good member, one should be able to inspire either </em><span><em>other members or leader. He or she should not be a problem source but a solution </em><span><em>source.</em></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /></span>

Recent research in interpersonal skills and processes led to the exploration of the feasibility of predicting interpersonal behavior from an expectancy measure. The development of an instrument to predict certain interpersonal behaviors was devised from the social learning theory framework of J. B. Rotter. The instrument, the Interpersonal Control Scale, was similar in rationale, design, and construction to Rotter's I-E Scale. Results suggested that persons who express an internal orientation with respect to interpersonal relations spend more time conversing with a stranger than persons who express an external orientation. Implications for social learning theory are discussed, and suggestions are offered regarding the potential usefulness of the scale in research on interpersonal functioning.
