Reality theory does not dwell on which aspects?

• A. The past
• B. The present moment
• C. Immediate actions
• D. Current choices

Answer: (A)

Reality therapy centers on present behavior and the choices a person makes right now to meet needs. It holds that change comes from choosing more effective actions in the here and now, rather than analyzing or dwelling on earlier experiences. Therapists guide clients using the WDEP process—what you want, what you’re doing to get it, whether your behavior is helping you achieve it, and a plan to change—focused on present reality and future outcomes. Because the emphasis is on present moment, immediate actions, and current choices, the past isn’t a primary focus. The method aims to improve how you act in the present and plan for the future, rather than unpacking past events.
