Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
The most accepted theory is that an abnormality in the functioning and structure of the brain causes autism; therefore option 3 is correct. The research is not conclusive to support the causes stated in options 1, 2 or 4.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Option 1 is a strategy within cognitive therapy. Family therapy and play therapy are not neces-sarily used with a behavior modification program. Behavior modification includes systematically listing goals, often in a chart, and rewarding the child for accomplishing each goal.
