The correct answer is vicarious conditioning.

Vicarious conditioning refers to the phenomenon wherein individuals learn responses, attitudes and beliefs about something or someone (a stimulus), not through direct experience with a stimulus, but, rather through observing someone else's reaction to a stimulus. In this instance, Jackson "learned" to fear diving boards and deep swimming pools through observing his sister's traumatic experience with them.
