Answer: A
Rationale: In Bandura's classic study, groups of children watched an adult attack a "Bobo" doll, while another group of children watched adults who did not attack the doll. Children who watched adults attack the doll did likewise when given the opportunity, in some cases even imitating the specific attack methods used by the adults. The other children did not attack the doll.
