Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Time-out is designed so that staff can be consistent in their interventions. Time-out may require having the child sit on the periphery of an activity until he or she gains self-control and reviews the episode with a staff member. Time-out may not require having the child go to a designated room and does not involve special attention such as holding. Having the child count to 10 or 20 is not sufficient.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Setting limits uses clear, sharp statements about the prohibited behavior and provides guidance for performing a behavior that is expected. The incorrect options represent a threat, use restructuring (which would be inappropriate in this instance), and make a direct appeal to the child's developing self-control that may be ineffective.
