Answer:

a. differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors

Explanation:

Differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors is an approach that involves replacing a problem behavior with a positive behavior by reinforcing and stimulating a positive behavior that cannot be exhibited the same time with the problem behavior. Differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors works well especially in cases of people having autism spectrum disorder (ASD) where the individual engages in problem behaviors that inflict injury on the individual.

From the question above, the therapist uses the differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors approach, as he uses praise as a reinforcement to increase the frequency at which Zander chews gum or sticks out his tongue, as these behaviors cannot occur together with the behavior of biting of lips. Chewing of gum, sticking out of tongues are reinforced in order to replace the biting of lips with them.

Understand how politics is the struggle over "who gets what when and how"
Aliun [14]
This is the hierarcy of a combination of concepts: social status, economics, privilege, and being a minority or majority. Politics is the science of how human social status and the degree of wealth a person has can affect the life they live. Politicians are meant to represent the people. They are citizens just like us with different family backgrounds but they have the privilege of being leaders. This means they often decide who gets what when and how.
