Behavior Modeling uses the innate inclination for people to observe others to discover how to do something new. It is more often used in combination with some other techniques.
Procedure of Behavior Modeling Technique
In this method, some kind of process or behavior is videotaped and then is watched by the trainees. Games and simulation section is also included because once the trainees see the videotape, they practice the behavior through role plays or other kind of simulation techniques. The trainee first observes the behavior modeled in the video and then reproduces the behavior on the job.

The skills that are required to build up are defined
A brief overview of the theory is then provided to the trainers
Then, trainees are given instructions that what specific learning points or critical behavior they have to watch
Then the expert is used to model the suitable behaviors
Then, the trainees are encouraged to practice the suitable behavior in a role play or through any other method of simulation
Trainees are then provided with some opportunities to give reinforcement for appropriate imitation of the model’s behavior
In the end, trainer ensures that trainees appropriately reinforces the behavior on the work place
Behavior modeling focuses on developing behavioral and interpersonal skills. This type of method can be used for training in
