I'm writing an essay about myself and have to incorporate the things I learned in psychology. One of them was classical conditioning. An example I wanted to use for this was seeing my mother dress up and put on makeup everytime we went to parties, so I observed that behavior and did the same when I was younger. Is that a good example?
That is a nice example of modeling and imitation.
