Explanation:

Albert Bandura is a canadian psychologist who is mostly known for the social-learning theory. This theory states that learning takes place by observing and imitating other people who are around us.

According to this theory, the specific term used for this process of learning through observation of another person (which is called a model) is called modeling.

In this example, Hiram has learned to seek attention by engaging in inappropriate behaviors because he sees that his brother receives attention when he hits and bites and therefore Hiram is imitating this. We can see that Hiram is learning through observation of his brother and his behaviors. Thus, this is an example of modeling.
