Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Induction is the most effective way to promote the internalization of rules and result in the child's self-regulation of behavior. This method involves reasoning and discussion with the child, helping them understand the consequences of their actions and the impact it may have on themselves or others. This approach promotes empathy and moral reasoning, leading to long-term behavioral changes. Power assertion and love withdrawal may lead to short-term compliance but can harm the parent-child relationship and may not promote internalization of rules. Power withdrawal lacks a clear consequence and may not be effective in promoting self-regulation.
