Answer to Question 1

One type of cognitive learning is insight learning. This is the type of learning that occurs when one mentally works through a problem until the correct answer suddenly becomes apparent. This is sometimes referred to as Aha learning. Another type is latent learning. This occurs when there is learning, but the organism does not necessarily display the learning when it occurs. At some later point when reinforcement for the response is introduced, the learning is demonstrated. Modeling (also called vicarious conditioning or observational learning) occurs when an organism learns by observing and imitating others.
