Answer:

Psychobabble.

Explanation:

Psychobabble is a form of speech or writing that uses language loaded with psychological terminology to give an impression of a plausible quality through a misdirection and obfuscation (mental confusion produced by an idea or impression that prevents reasoning).  Our ability to reason normally can be disturbed and confused and on these occasions we say that we are obfuscated. The term implies that the speaker or writer does not adequately handle psychological terms to give them the necessary understanding.

IceJOKER [234]

The following scenario is linked to a variety of positive outcomes, such as prevention of delinquency, reduction in sexual activity, improved school performance, and positive psychological well-being:

Through a cooperative relationship in which the adolescent willingly discloses information and permissive parenting, noninterference with daily activities, and allowing the adolescent to withhold information from parents.

In this form of a relationship, studies show that a development of trust and appreciation is important to both the parent and adolescent sides of the relationship. This trust often distills a sense of confidence and responsibility in the adolescent leading to improved school performance, improvements in psychological well-being, reduced sexual activity, and a trend of non-delinquent behavior.

The correct answer is D) unstable external attribution. Attributions are the inferences people make about the causes of events. There are internal/external and stable/unstable attributions. 
When people make a stable attribution, they infer that an event due to stable factors. When making an unstable attribution, they infer that an event or behavior is due to unstable, temporary factors.
For example, Lisa gets a F on his sociology term paper. If he attributes the grade to the fact that he always has bad luck, it is a stable attribution. If he attributes the grade to the fact that he didn’t have much time to study, it is an unstable attribution.
