The findings indicate that there is a significant relationship among three variables (differential association, differential reinforcement, and imitation) from social learning theory with the attitude towards extramarital relationships and all its dimensions.The results of multiple regression analysis show that the independent variable of the reward has the most predictability on the dependent variable. In general, the results confirm the propositions related to the social learning theory and show that the attitude to extramarital relationship increases under the influence of rewards, punishments and imitation from the media is strengthened and its repeatability increases. According to social learning theory, both overt behavior and cognitive definitions related to extramarital relationship are created with two dimensions of differential reinforcement and imitation, both of which function discriminative stimuli for the behavior.
