Bandura hoped that the experiment would prove that aggression can be explained‚ at least in part‚ by social learning theory. The theory of social learning would state that behaviour such as aggression is learned through observing and imitating others. The experiment is important because it sparked many more studies about the effects that viewing violence had on children
