Kevin has just moved to a new neighborhood. In his old neighborhood, everyone wore Vans and board shorts, but he notices that the kids on his new block are wearing Nikes and basketball shorts. He also notices that they tease people who are not dressed this way. Kevin immediately asks his mom to take him to the store to buy new clothes. What has taken place here

Answer:

Observational learning

Step-by-step explanation:

When one exhibits a behavior through watching others. From the word observe, we can simply describe observational learning as a cognition method whereby individuals reciprocate a certain behavior they have seen and studied other perform overtime before they also pickup and showcase such behavior. This form of learning from watching others is most commonly a learning process adopted by children who tend to mimick the behavior they obser e from adults around them especially their parents, loved ones and people used to them. After Kevin had watched and picked up the type of outfit worn by neighbor he tends to mimicjnand reproduce such.
