Answer to Question 1

A
The treatment of children with a diagnosis of conduct disorder has been found to be more successful if parents are involved in efforts to modify their child's behavior. The home environment provides children with a setting to develop skills they need to be successful in other settings such as the school. Parents who are involved in the children's treatment can also serve as role models for behavior and instill the values and beliefs necessary for their children to interact effectively with the larger society.

Answer to Question 2

C
The most widely accepted energy-based technique in nursing is therapeutic touch. Therapeutic touch is a five-step process of centering: assessing the client's energy field, smoothing or unruffling the field, modulating or transferring energy, and knowing when to stop.
