In which situation is a student learning from others’ success instead of feeling discouraged?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Identifying their useful habit and applying it according to one’s goal
Learning from others involves observing what helped them, evaluating whether it fits one’s own situation, and adapting it rather than copying blindly. This turns comparison into useful information and preserves personal goals. Giving up, feeling inferior, or attacking successful people converts comparison into discouragement instead of growth. Thus A shows constructive observational learning.
