Understand the concept of learning in psychology: Learning is a relatively permanent change in behavior or knowledge that results from experience.
Identify the examples provided and analyze each one to determine if they involve a change due to experience.
Consider Kara's example: She asks for new shoes because her feet have grown. This is a biological change, not a result of learning.
Consider Ama's example: She slows down her car after seeing a police officer. This is a change in behavior due to the experience of seeing the officer, indicating learning.
Consider Isaiah and Lamont's examples: Isaiah sitting for the first time is a developmental milestone, and Lamont looking more like his father is a genetic change, neither of which are examples of learning.
