Outline the factors that determine successful learning through imitation

Answers

The model should be a significant person who the learner respects and identifies with e.g. famous
people such as athletes and celebrities.
The learner should be reinforced for correctly imitating the behavior expected for a more productive effect.
The learner needs to observe the model behaving in exactly the same way he or she is expected to
behave.
Time should be provided for reinforcement for the imitated behavior.
The more attention paid to the modeling agent, the more effective is the learning.
