Answer 1

The correct answer is observational learning. This method of learning consists of observing and modeling another individual’s behavior, attitudes, or emotional expressions. According to Albert Bandura (American psychologist) individuals may simply learn from the behavior rather than imitate it. Observational learning is a major component of Bandura’s social learning theory. He also claimed that there are four conditions which are necessary in all forms of observing and modeling behavior: attention, retention, reproduction, and motivation.
