Children who were exposed to aggressive models displayed a high level of physical and verbal aggression, imitating the model's behavior. In contrast, children in the non-aggressive and control groups showed very little imitative aggression. The aggressive group had significantly higher aggression scores compared to the other groups, with some even copying the non-aggressive verbal responses of the model. It is important to note that none of the children in the non-aggressive or control groups imitated the aggressive verbal responses demonstrated by the aggressive model. The result was striking. Children exposed to aggressive models showed a lot of physical and verbal aggression, mimicking the model's behavior. On the flip side, children in the non-aggressive and control groups displayed very little imitative aggression. The aggressive groups had much higher aggression scores compared to the non-aggressive and control groups, with about one-third of the aggressive group copying the model's non-aggressive verbal responses. Notably, none of the children in the non-aggressive group or control group mimicked the aggressive verbal responses demonstrated by the aggressive model.
