observing an aggressive model has little or no influence on a child’s behaviour.

Detailed explanation-1: -The children who observed the non-aggressive adult model would be less aggressive than the children who observed the aggressive model; the non-aggressive exposure group would also be less aggressive than the control group.
Detailed explanation-2: -The experiment revealed that children imitate the aggressive behavior of adults. The findings support Bandura’s social learning theory, which emphasises the influence of observational learning on behavior.
Detailed explanation-3: -According to Bandura, learning can occur by watching others and then modeling what they do or say. This is known as observational learning. There are specific steps in the process of modeling that must be followed if learning is to be successful. These steps include attention, retention, reproduction, and motivation.
Detailed explanation-4: -Bandura concluded that children learn two things from observing an aggressive model-how to perform the specific aggressive acts and: aggression can be fun. Children can learn to be kind and helpful through observing prosocial behavior, an important aspect of: socialization.
Detailed explanation-5: -Bandura’s hypothesis for the Bobo Doll experiment: Boys would be more aggressive than girls. Children would be more likely to act aggressively if they witnessed adult aggressive behavior. Kids would be more inspired to act according to a model of their biological sex.
