Children with disruptive behavioral disorders, such as conduct disorder and oppositional defiant disorder, will benefit most from parents’ implementation of early interventions with consistent what?

Choice A rationale
Rejecting is a non-therapeutic communication technique where the nurse refuses to discuss certain topics with the patient. In this case, the nurse telling the patient not to talk about her history of childhood sexual abuse is an example of rejecting. This approach can make the patient feel unheard or invalidated, which can hinder the therapeutic relationship and impede the patient’s healing process.
Choice B rationale
Providing inadequate responses is another non-therapeutic communication technique. It involves giving vague or insufficient responses to the patient’s concerns or questions. However, in this scenario, the nurse is not providing an inadequate response but rather refusing to engage in the conversation altogether, which is more aligned with rejecting.
Choice C rationale
Being judgmental is a non-therapeutic communication technique where the nurse makes negative judgments or evaluations about the patient. In this scenario, the nurse is not making any judgments about the patient or her experiences. Instead, the nurse is avoiding the topic, which is indicative of rejecting.
Choice D rationale
Failing to probe is a non-therapeutic communication technique that involves not seeking further information from the patient, thereby missing important details. While the nurse in this scenario is not seeking more information about the patient’s history, the behavior is more accurately described as rejecting because the nurse is actively discouraging the patient from discussing her experiences.

Choice A rationale
Parents who were very lenient disciplinarians may not necessarily lead to conduct disorder in their children. While lack of discipline can contribute to some behavioral issues, it is not specifically associated with conduct disorder.
Choice B rationale
Harsh parental discipline and physical punishment can contribute to the development of conduct disorder. Children who experience harsh discipline may learn to use aggressive behavior as a way of dealing with conflict and may have difficulty developing pro-social behavior. This can lead to a pattern of violating the rights of others and societal norms, which is characteristic of conduct disorder.
Choice C rationale
Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder characterized by distortions in thinking, perception, emotions, language, sense of self, and behavior. While some individuals with conduct disorder may also have schizophrenia, the presence of schizophrenia does not necessarily indicate that an individual will develop conduct disorder.
Choice D rationale
Autism is a developmental disorder characterized by difficulties with social interaction and communication, and by restricted and repetitive behavior. It is not typically associated with the aggressive and rule-breaking behavior seen in conduct disorder.
