Answer 2

Answer:

Observational Learning

Explanation:

Observational learning can defined as a way a person learn another person behaviour or attitude by observing them either through watching and retaining the information leading to replication or imitation of the behaviour.

Observational learning can also means to put into practice what we have observe from another person Example a child can begin to carryout the act or behaviour that his /her parent have been doing simply by observing them which means the child has modelled his parent behaviour through observation.

Therefore the part of the social cognitive theory that addresses Alison’s new behavior is OBSERVATIONAL LEARNING
