Which of the following is an example of a method aimed at change?

Classroom instruction
Motivational interview
Standard testing
Traditional lectures

The correct answer is: Motivational interview

The method that is aimed at change is the motivational interview. This approach is specifically designed to help individuals explore and resolve their ambivalence about behavior change, making it a powerful tool in settings such as health care and counseling. It engages a person in a conversation that promotes their intrinsic motivation to change by helping them articulate their own reasons and advantages of making a change. In contrast, classroom instruction, standard testing, and traditional lectures primarily focus on teaching or assessing knowledge rather than facilitating personal change. These methods typically involve imparting information or evaluating understanding without the personalized, interactive component that motivational interviewing incorporates. This context makes it clear why motivational interviewing stands out as an effective method aimed at fostering personal transformation.
