C. Defensiveness

D. Validation

Overkill

Explanation:

Behavioral overkill is to use something in excess, related to drug use. The lightest behavioral technology should be used to control this technique. When an author thinks that a behaviorist would be a future teacher in the classroom, so that teacher should be a subtle behaviorist and have to go through a study about the material.

Thus when there is the heated moment between and his partner, he tells that if he doesn't do what she likes she will leave but in actual she doesn't do anything. This is the example of overkill.
