Preferred term
imitation
Definition(s)
- Anthropological evidence has shown that, in many cultures, observational learning and imitation are the major ways by which behaviors unique to that culture are transmitted from one generation to the next. It has been argued that imitation is more efficient than either trial-and-error learning or individual problem solving. [Source: Encyclopedia of Human Development; Imitation]
