Reactive Attachment Disorder occurs in children below the age of 5 and is

and disinhibited type. This question is about the former, which involves inhibition,
hypervigilance, and ambivalent responses in social situations. The other subtype,
disinhibited type, involves indiscriminate attachments and sociability (e.g.,
familiarity with strangers, lack of selectivity in choice of attachment figures). In
both subtypes, evidence of pathogenic care (e.g., disregard for the child's basic
physical or emotional needs) must be present before the diagnosis can be made.

C. peer relationships and self-esteem.

D. working with a medical professional who can prescribe medications to alter
hormonal imbalances. - Correct Answer is: C



Treatment of Gender Identity Disorder in children is moderately controversial,
with some arguing that any attempt to alter a child's gender identity is sexist, and
others stating that it represents a sneaky attempt to prevent the child from
growing up to be homosexual. Nonetheless, a number of treatment models have
been applied, even though scientific evidence of their success is limited. Typical
interventions focus on social skills, self-esteem, and increasing the child's comfort
with his or her biological gender. They may include positive reinforcement for
gender-appropriate behavior, setting limits on cross-gender behavior, social skills
training, and parental training in self-esteem enhancement.
