In Bandura's Bobo Doll experiment, children observed a teacher model aggressive behavior towards a five-foot inflatable doll, including hitting, throwing, and punching it. The study found that the consequences for the teacher's actions directly influenced the children's behavior. Children were less likely to imitate the aggression if they saw the teacher being punished. Conversely, if the teacher was praised or ignored, the children imitated the aggressive actions, including punching, kicking, and yelling at the doll.
