Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Observational learning occurs when one person acquires new information or behaviors by watching the actions and consequences experienced by another individual. This can include modeling, imitation, and vicarious reinforcement, where a person learns from the positive or negative outcomes of another person's actions. It does not necessarily require a specified time period or practice of the task, nor does it require direct rewards or punishments for correct or incorrect behavior.
