Explanation:

Observational learning is when an individual learns by observing others. In this case, José observes his brother and mimics the swimming motions. Operant conditioning involves learning through consequences (rewards or punishments). Classical conditioning pairs a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned stimulus to elicit a response. Pattern conditioning is not a standard recognized learning type in mainstream psychology.
