Observational learning is also known as:

  • A.modelling
  • B.social learning
  • C.modelling and social learning
  • D.modelling, social learning, and imitation

Answer: D

The key accepts the option that lists all three names: modelling, social learning and imitation. Observational learning, in which a person learns by watching the behaviour of others (Bandura), is described in textbooks under each of these labels. Options naming only modelling, only social learning, or just the first two are incomplete, because the stem asks for what it is 'also known as' and the fullest list is the key.

All three words describe learning through watching another person (the model) and copying the behaviour that is seen, although imitation is the most direct copying.
