Precursor behavior in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) refers to actions or behaviors that occur before the target behavior of interest.

What are the factors that determine whether observational learning will occur?

The key factors that determine whether observational learning will occur include attention, retention, motor reproduction, and motivation. Attention refers to the extent to which individuals focus on the model's behavior. Retention involves remembering the observed behavior. Motor reproduction is the ability to replicate the behavior, and motivation relates to the desire to imitate the behavior based on reinforcement or punishment.
