In order⟳ for a model⟳ to become⟳ an effective object of imitation, an optimum balance of distance and proximity is vital. If the object is too far removed from the imitator, he will not become⟳ sensitive to and perceptive of it. If too closely related, it would lose⟳ its enticive quality, or even worse, it would be altogether ineffective in remodelling existing behavior.”
