Answer to Question 1

 Cue management (stimulus control): This strategy deals with the antecedent component of a behavior chain by prearranging cues to increase a desired response or to suppress a detrimental one.
 Countering: This technique uses exchanging healthy responses for problem behaviors and addresses the B (behavior) portion of the behavior chain.
 Rewards: Reinforcement behavior change strategies provide incentives by addressing the end of the behavior chainconsequences. Rewards provide positive consequences, commonly thought to be more effective than negative consequences.
 Modeling: Many of our behaviors are learned by observing and imitating others. By observing others accomplish a goal similar to their own, clients' beliefs in their ability to imitate the behavior increases.
 Problem solving: This strategy involves a counselor and client working together to identify a behavior chain, detecting barriers to change, brainstorming possible options, and weighing the pros and cons of the alternatives. The objective is to design an action plan by selecting as many breaks in the behavior chain as possible, especially focusing on the antecedents of the chain. The plan should include a reward.
 Contracting: A contract documents an agreement between a counselor and a client to implement a particular goal. The contract can cover short- or long-term goals. Rewards are often used in conjunction with contracting.
 Encouragement: Words of encouragement generally increase a client's self-efficacy to perform a behavior change.
