Question:

Assertion (A): The client with psychological distress or with physical symptoms, which cannot be attributed to physical disease, is interviewed with a view to analyse her/his behavior patterns.
Reason (R): Behavioral analysis is conducted to find malfunctioning behaviors, the antecedents of faulty learning.

Options:

Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A

A is true, R is false

A is false, R is true

Correct Answer:

Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Explanation:

Option 1: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:

Assertion (A) states that clients with psychological distress or unexplained physical symptoms are interviewed to analyze their behavior patterns. This is generally true in psychological assessments and therapy sessions.

Reason (R) states that behavioral analysis is conducted to identify malfunctioning behaviors and the antecedents of faulty learning. This is also true as behavioral analysis often aims to identify patterns of behavior and their underlying causes.

Moreover, Reason (R) provides a plausible explanation for why clients with psychological distress or unexplained physical symptoms are interviewed—to analyze their behavior patterns to identify malfunctioning behaviors and antecedents of faulty learning. Thus, Option 1 is the correct choice.

"The client with psychological distress or with physical symptoms, which cannot be attributed to physical disease, is interviewed with a view to analyse her/his behavior patterns. Behavioral analysis is conducted to find malfunctioning behaviors, the antecedents of faulty learning, and the factors that maintain or continue faulty learning."
