One common child fear is the fear of lightning and thunder. Many 
children become anxious and cry when they see bright flash and hear 
thunder. Explain how this fear can be understood from the perspective 
of conditioning, (classical and operant)and imitation or modeling?

Dear nypunkchick,

I am interested in your quetion.  But, I would like to clarify.  Do
you want an explaination of how this fear can be understood from the
perspective of each of the three, conditioning, imitation or modeling?
 Or would you like an answer as to which one it is most likely to be,
and why?

Thank you
pba
