Question

Autumn Thomas · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  The Bobo doll studies conducted by Bandura, Ross, & Ross in 1963 found that the group of children who watched an adult model attack a Bobo doll were twice as aggressive as those in the control group. This suggests that the children were influenced by the aggressive behavior they witnessed, and were more likely to imitate that behavior themselves. The other choices (A, B, and C) are not supported by the findings of the study.
