Answer to Question 1

ANS: F
FEEDBACK: In the Bobo doll experiments conducted by Bandura, when the children were left alone with the doll, they modeled their behavior after the example they had just witnessed. Their behavior was compared with that of a control group of children who had not seen the model attack the Bobo doll. The experimental group was found to be twice as aggressive as the control group.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: Modeling is a behavior-modification technique that involves observing the behavior of others (the models) and participating with them in performing the desired behavior. Bandura did not deny the importance of direct reinforcement as a way to influence behavior, but he challenged the notion that behavior can be learned or changed only through direct reinforcement.
