Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The most effective approach to managing ADHD involves reinforcing positive behaviors and obedience rather than punishing undesirable behaviors. Therefore, it is likely that the therapist is teaching Molly's mom to reinforce positive behaviors and obedience. The use of a token economy (Choice C) may also be helpful in this process, but reinforcing positive behaviors is the most likely focus of the therapy.
