Answer to Question 1

B
Petrissage is best described as kneading motions, which are used during a massage and used for stimulation. Effleurage are the long, soothing strokes used to increase circulation. Tapotement is stimulating rapid percussive movements.

Answer to Question 2

A
Intensive, sustained special education programs and behavior therapy early in life can increase the ability of the child with autism to acquire language and ability to learn. Special education programs in highly structured environments can help affected children acquire self-care, social, educational, and even job skills.
