At a youth orchestra rehearsal, Asha sees an older musician hide another player's sheet music to make their performance go badly. Afterwards, the other older musicians laugh and invite the musician who hid the music to sit with them. A week later, Asha notices that another player's sheet music has been left unattended.
Using social learning theory, explain how what Asha observed could affect what she does with the unattended sheet music. Suggest how her behaviour might differ if the laughter and invitation had happened after Asha had left.
