Final answer:

Claire should not include the rat running through a maze example as evidence for observational learning in animals.


Explanation:

The evidence Claire should NOT include to support her point that animals use observational learning is:

  • A rat learns to run through a maze quickly to get the food at the end of the maze.

This example does not involve observational learning, but rather trial and error learning through reinforcement.

The other examples provided involve true observational learning where animals learn by observing others.
