  1. Viewing a client as unworthy of care

  2. Seeing a client solely based on their weaknesses

  3. Understanding a client's strengths and potential for achievement

  4. Ignoring a client's personal background and focusing on treatment only

The correct answer is: Understanding a client's strengths and potential for achievement

Positive regard involves understanding a client's strengths and potential for achievement. This means recognizing and acknowledging their positive qualities and abilities, and working with them to build upon these strengths. Options A and B are incorrect because they involve negative and limiting views of the client. Option D is incorrect because it disregards the importance of a client's personal background and experiences. Positive regard is an essential aspect of effective client treatment and involves a holistic understanding of the client's strengths and potential.
