Answer to Question 1

If you observe a person do something that is followed by a reward, you become more likely to engage in the same behavior, even though you did not receive the reward yourself. Likewise, if you see another person punished for a particular behavior, you become less likely to engage in the behavior yourself. This is presumably due to expectations that one will receive the same contingencies (reward or punishment).

Answer to Question 2
