lab experement that used matched participant design. IV is whether the child witnessed aggressive or non aggressive adult model, sex of model and sex of child. The DV was the amount of imitative behaviour and aggression shown in phase 3

72 children (36/36) ages 37-69 months from stanford uni nursery school

Children taken individually into a room and sat at a table to play with potato print some pictures stickers for 10 minutes whileaggressive model was showing aggression to a Tinkertoy set and a Bobo doll and the non-aggressive played with them the control

children were taken individually to anteroom and subjected to midl aggression in arousal. They were allowed to play with some toys but after two minutes the experimenter took the toys away saying there was the other children

then taken into a third room and they were observed through a one-way mirror for 20 minutes, recorded imitative aggression, partially imitative aggression, non-imitative physical and verbal aggression or non-aggressive behaviour

children in aggressive condition showed significantly more imitation of physical and verbal aggression vice versa. children who with same sex model we’re more likely to follow them. male model had greater influence than female and boys more aggressive

Children will imitate aggressive and non-aggressive behaviours displayed by models even if a model is not present.children can learn behaviour through observation male adults have a great influence children are more likely to be influenced by the same sex
