Observational Learning
Observational learning is a type of learning
process that happen when we watch others
and then imitate or modeling what they do or
say. Models are the people who demonstrate
the imitated behavior. Hickok, 2010; Rizzolatti,
Fadiga, Fogassi, & Gallese, 2002; Rizzolatti,
Fogassi, & Gallese 2006 suggests that this
learning involves a specific type of neuron
known as mirror neuron.
