Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
A 6-year-old can learn to comply with requests when adults reinforce compliance with positive reinforcements. 1. Varied outcomes is not a step to use in operant conditioning. 3. Self-efficacy is not a strategy related to operant conditioning. 4. A conditioned response is the outcome of oper-ant conditioning, not a strategy.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
This specifically addresses the child's development. Option 1 will elicit prenatal history. Option 2 will identify the presenting problem. Option 4 will identify past attempts to deal with the pre-senting problem.
