Homework Help: Psychology

Posted by Linda on Saturday, February 21, 2009 at 11:26am.

I have listed approaches that I think would be most effective for the following scenarios. Can someone please tell me if my answers are correct. If so, I'm not sure how to explain why they are correct.
1) A 27 year old female victim of incest who was recently divorced due to her husband's infidelity (ego psychology).
2) A 14 year old male whose parents are forcing him to attend counseling due to acting out in school (behaviorism).
3) A 40 year old female with a drug problem who recently ended a positive long-term relationship to move in with a new associate (cognitive-behavior).
4) A 35 year old, happily married father of three children who is an overachiever and climbing the corporate ladder but has been experiencing bouts of depression for the past six months (crisis intervention).
