Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: The attributes of the observers also determine the effectiveness of observational learning. People who are low in self-confidence and self-esteem are much more likely to imitate a model's behavior than are people high in self-confidence and self-esteem.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: The type of behavior the model performs affects the extent of imitation. Hostile and aggressive behaviors tend to be strongly imitated, especially by children.
