Explanation / Answer

Option C) tell others to use seat belts but rarely use it themselves.

Observational learning involves learning by watching or through interaction,retaining the information and imitating or repeating it later. Since Mrs Ramirez constantly tells her children to wear seat belts but does not do it herself, the children learn that telling others about a behaviour is good but not doing following it themselves is acceptable.
