Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The technique described in the question is role-playing, which involves rehearsing specific behaviors in a simulated situation to make them more likely to occur in the real world. Symbolic modeling involves presenting a model performing the desired behavior without the client actually rehearsing it. Generalized imitation involves imitating a variety of behaviors without specific rehearsal. Participant modeling involves the therapist demonstrating the desired behavior and the client gradually participating in the behavior.
