Answer to Question 1

3
Folk medicine embodies the beliefs, values, and treatment approaches of a particular cultural group.

Answer to Question 2

A
This is the overall goal of therapy, so the adolescent will not feel the need to depend on the chemical for coping with stressors. A residential treatment program or a group home setting may be a necessary intervention in some cases, but it is not a goal of therapy. Isolation during withdrawal is not necessary.
