Answer:This explanation for Sam's gender development is based on the SOCIAL LEARNING APPROACH.

Step-by-step explanation:

Social Learning refers the the fact that we learn through observing what people do and we imitate those behaviours and we also learn through modeling.

We model what others do after we have observed their actions.

As Sam watches these gender based traditional roles he is getting influenced by what he sees and will eventually imitate these behaviours because it what he has been exposed to.he is Alps still young to be able to have his own ideas about gender roles as he is still leaning socially he will keep adopting what he learns along the way.
