Behavior modification techniques rely on reinforcing desired behaviors to promote change. For this to be effective, it is important that the client understands what behaviors are being reinforced so they can actively work towards changing their behavior. This also ensures that the process is transparent and ethical. Other statements are incorrect as behavior modification techniques are typically conducted with the client's informed consent and regulation, and should not manipulate or control the client against their will. They also do not necessarily put constraints on socially acceptable behaviors but rather aim for positive, growth-promoting change.
