QUESTION #1459
Question 1
Which type of learning occurs through observing others and imitating their behaviors?
Correct Answer Explanation
Observational learning (also called social learning or modelling) occurs by watching and imitating others. Albert Bandura's Social Learning Theory (1977) demonstrated this through his Bobo doll experiments, showing children imitated aggressive behaviour modelled by adults. Classical conditioning involves stimulus-response associations; operant conditioning involves reinforcement/punishment; latent learning occurs without immediate reinforcement.
