What is the study for social learning theory?

The researchers observed 32 mothers playing with a 6-month-old baby.The mothers were misled about the baby's gender—some were told the baby was a boy, others were told it was a girl. The babies were dressed in gender-neutral clothing. When mothers believed the baby was a boy they were more likely to offer "masculine" toys, like the squeaky hammer and encouraged active and vigorous play. When they thought the baby was a girl, they offered "feminine" toys, like a doll and encouraged gentler and more nurturing play. Shows adults use differential reinforcement based on the stereotypes of gender appropriate behaviour from infancy
