What does live modeling refer to?

  1. Using computer simulations

  2. Watching a real person perform the desired behavior

  3. Reading detailed descriptions of behaviors

  4. Listening to audio recordings of desired behaviors

The correct answer is: Watching a real person perform the desired behavior

Live modeling refers to watching a real person perform the desired behavior. This allows individuals to observe the behavior and learn from it in a real-life scenario. Option A is incorrect because computer simulations may be created and controlled to present a biased or ideal depiction of the behavior. Option C is incorrect because detailed descriptions may not provide the necessary visual or auditory cues for effective learning. Option D is incorrect because audio recordings may not provide enough context for understanding the behavior. Therefore, option B is the most accurate and effective form of live modeling.
