Fourteen-year-old Wayne has a history of aggressive behavior toward other students, and so his classmates have kept their distance from him over the years. But Wayne has worked extensively with the school counselor in recent months, and his interpersonal behavior has improved dramatically. Wayne's teachers must remember, however, that:

a. Other students may continue to reject Wayne unless they can be convinced that he has changed.
b. Wayne's self-esteem regarding his ability to succeed at academic tasks is likely to have decreased in the meantime.
c. Wayne's aggressive behavior is likely to reappear whenever he is placed in a competitive situation.
d. Any improvement is likely to be short-lived.
