Design an Experiment to Determine the Role of Delayed Reinforcement

Essay

Design an experiment to determine the role of delayed reinforcement of a model's behavior in
observational learning. (inferred)
A group design might have children observe an adult model, with the model's target behavior reinforced immediately in one condition and after a delay in another. In a single case design, the same children might observe models in two situations, one involving immediate reinforcement, the other involving delayed reinforcement. In either study, the dependent variable would be the tendency of the observers to imitate the target behavior.
