Does your question have the following list of options?
<span>A. Attention
B. Motor reproduction
C. Replication
D. Reinforcement
</span>If so, then the answer would be letter D. Reinforcement.
<span>In 1961, Albert Bandura illustrated a famous “
Bobo Doll Expirement” to support his
statement that children observe the people surrounding them behaving in many
different ways.</span>
Children observe these models—people observed,
and encode their behaviour.
>At first the child tried to imitate the
model’s behaviour the same as itself but it is more likely to attend to imitate
actions modelled by people on the same gender.
> Second, the models around the child will try
to respond to the behaviour the child imitates which could be REINFORCEMENT or
PUNISHMENT.
<span>If the child’s imitation of the model is
rewarding, then the child would likely to REPEAT or continue imitating the behaviour,
thus her behaviour has been strengthened—REINFORCED.</span>
