Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
In both positive and negative reinforcement, the person is rewarded for an appropriate response. With positive reinforcement, the response happens by adding something to increase probability. Negative reinforcement involves the termination or removal of a consequence after a desired response to increase the probability of a behavior. Operant and respondent are terms used to describe conditioning, not reinforcement.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
Countertransference refers to the feelings and thoughts that service providers have toward the client. In Countertransference, the provider may harbor certain images of the client that result in blind spots, which can be destructive or disruptive to the therapeutic process. Transference refers to feelings and thoughts that clients have toward the service provider. Respondent conditioning happens when a response and a stimulus become connected through repetition. Distorted cognitions are self-defeating thoughts that lead to self-defeating behaviors.
