Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: According to Bandura, behavior is controlled by the person through the cognitive processes, and by the environment through external social situations. Bandura calls this view reciprocal determinism.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Bandura explained that far from manipulating or enslaving, modeling techniques actually increase personal freedom. People who are afraid to leave the house or who have a compulsion to wash their hands continually are not truly free.
