Gio asked his older brother jake to assemble his new toy. jake couldn't figure out how to assemble it, so he threw the toy on the floor, stepped on it, and left the room. gio then picked up the toy, threw it against the wall, and stepped on it again. based on bandura's theory, which of the following statements is not true?

gio's inborn aggressions caused this behavior.

gio modeled his behavior after jake's behavior.

gio's behavior is a result of his social environment.

gio observed and imitated behavior he thought was acceptable.

The correct answer is A. Gio's inborn aggressions caused this behavior.

Explanation:

Albert Bandura is an important psychologist mainly known for his theories about cognitive development and learning. In the case of his Social learning theory, Bandura proposed behaviors are acquired through observation and imitation. This implies learning relies on a social context and does not only depend on the individual and the reinforcements or punishment of behaviors.

According to this, in the case of Gio's behavior, this can be explained as one behavior he imitated from Jack and this means it is true Gio observed the behavior and then imitated it, Gio's behavior is the result of his social context and the behavior is modeled after Jack's behavior. However, according to Bandura's proposal, it is not true " Gio's inborn aggressions caused this behavior" because Bandura states learning occurs through imitation not because it is innate to the individual.
