Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

Lindsey Lohan has been in and out of rehab programs for substance abuse problems. The operant conditioning psychologist believes that Lindsey's substance abuse stemmed from the reinforcement she received from early drinking experiences, such as having fun with friends and feeling less inhibited. The social learning psychologist believes that Lindsey's substance abuse stemmed from observational learning because she grew up with a parent who abused alcohol and other substances. Both psychologists may agree that imitating her parent was reinforcing for Lindsey because she viewed herself as similar to this parent.
