The educational dimension is a set of goals that the educational process pursues. These dimensions include the cognitive dimension, the behavioral and moral dimension, and the social dimension. Each of these dimensions plays a major role in the formation of human personality and is an important indicator in human education. Many theories have contributed to the educational process, but social cognitive theory, by combining both cognitive and behavioral factors, has provided the basis for the maximum use of cognitive and environmental methods. According to this theory, by providing a model, the necessary information can be created in the mental schema of the educator, and consequently, the desired apparent behaviors can be created or eliminated. The question that this article seeks to answer is what is the role of the three factors of social learning in education and what is the relationship between them? The findings of this study show that the educational methods derived from this theory are not only used to reinforce or correct existing behaviors but can also be used to prevent the occurrence of undesirable behaviors. According to this theory, education is not only a corrective process but also a preventive process.
