I'm not sure about that. I think it could also be B) Inquiring about barriers to employment, as that can help identify obstacles to change.

I agree with Osvaldo. Motivational interviewing involves asking open-ended questions to help clients explore their thoughts and feelings.

C? Really? Encouraging the support person to answer? That's not motivational interviewing, that's just passing the buck. A all the way!

Haha, D is just way off. Motivational interviewing is about mental health, not physical health. This test is testing our listening skills, not our medical knowledge!

Hmm, I was thinking B, but now I'm not so sure. Exploring barriers is important, but the focus should be on the person's own motivations, right?
