Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

Bandura's research focuses on imitation, the process by which individuals copy or imitate what they have observed; and modeling, the process by which a person learns by observing the behavior of others. Skinner's theory is based upon reinforcement. Lewin's theory is based on change. Piaget's theory describes the development of cognition.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

Lewin's field theory involves theories of motivation and perception, which were considered precursors of the more recent cognitive theories. The other options are either theorists who are not cognitive theorists or theorists that used Lewin's work as a foundation.
