Hello students, in this question we have been told that brian is a 31 year old struggling alcoholic from new jersey.
00:13
During his childhood he grew up in poverty and witnesses domestic violence.
00:26
In his family he maintained a 2 .5 gpa throughout high school and although he graduated he was in several fights.
00:38
During his senior year he decided to apply for several universities around his area including rutgers.
00:53
He received rejection letters after rejection letters.
00:58
He eventually gave up hope of going and beginning or beginning us and began singing in.
01:10
During his musical career he began drinking heavily and engaging in aggressive behavior.
01:18
So aggressive behavior is another one similar to his fights in high school or senior year.
01:29
He is now awaiting trial for his fourth dui.
01:37
So we have to discuss two theories and discuss how they're linked to this particular situation.
01:43
So the key factors as already listed is childhood poverty, exposure to domestic violence, academic struggles and rejections from university, aggressive behavior and alcoholism, involvement in the music industries and legal troubles related to dui.
02:13
Based on these factors there are two theories that could be linked to brian's case.
02:19
So firstly one is social learning theory.
02:25
Here people learn behavior through observation, imitation and reinforcement and in brian's case his exposure to domestic violence as a child could influence aggressive behavior...
