Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Observational learning is the process of acquiring new responses by watching the behaviors of others (in this case, the teacher). Classical conditioning involves learning through the association of two stimuli, while operant conditioning involves learning through consequences of behavior. Latent learning involves learning that is not immediately expressed in behavior.
