Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
FEEDBACK: The research in which Bandura compared the behavior of parents of two groups of children showed that the parents of the inhibited children were inhibited, and the parents of the aggressive children were aggressive. The children had modeled their behavior on the examples provided by their parents.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
FEEDBACK: In Bandura's studies, preschool children watched an adult hit and kick Bobo. 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.
