Answer to Question 1

B
Social skills training teaches the child to recognize the impact of his or her behavior on others. It uses instruction, role-playing, and positive reinforcement to enhance social outcomes. The other therapies would have lesser to no impact on peer relationships.

Answer to Question 2

D
The individual with narcissistic personality disorder displays grandiosity about self-importance and achievements, does not empathize or understand the feelings of others, exhibits a sense of entitlement, and expects special treatment. The other options reflect characteristics of histrionic personality disorder, obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, and schizotypal personality disorder.
