Answer 1

E) Ingrid swam poorly until she noticed the efficient stroke of the man in the next lane; now her swimming is greatly improved.

Step-by-step explanation:

Observational learning consists of a learning technique based on observing a task performed correctly. This is thanks to our brain's ability to, by observing the repetition of a task, learn to do equally. This is the case with Ingrid, who was not a good swimmer. However, by repeatedly observing the swimming of a man who performed correctly, she learned that there is a more correct technique than she used, that is, she learned by observing.
