Answer to Question 1

C
The child who is behaving aggressively, hitting other children, and taking their belongings away from them is most likely the child with autism. The aggressive behavior of children with autism is related to their profound lack of interest in social interactions. Autistic children would not be talking nonstop and not paying attention to the teacher, which is more characteristic of a child with ADHD. A child with autism would more likely be playing with a spinning toy instead of a handful of rocks.

Answer to Question 2

D
Garner et al. in 2008 found that massage therapy had a positive effect on the treatment of stress, anxiety, and aggression in a young adult psychiatric inpatient unit. Data revealed that massage therapy had immediate beneficial effects on anxiety-related measures (anxiety, resting heart rate, and saliva cortisol levels). Findings also indicated that massage may be a useful deescalating tool for reducing stress and anxiety in hospitalized psychiatric patients.
