Explanation:

Analyze Question 19

The Little Albert experiment, conducted by John B. Watson and Rosalie Rayner, involved pairing a neutral stimulus (a white rat) with an unconditioned stimulus (a loud noise) to elicit a conditioned fear response in an infant. This demonstrated that emotional reactions, specifically fear, can be established through classical conditioning in humans.

Analyze Question 20

Beatrice observed her mother's behavior (calling someone "pathetic") and later replicated that exact behavior with her friend. Learning that occurs through watching and replicating the behavior of others is defined as observational learning (or modeling).
