Explanation:

First Question (What is cultural competency?):

• Option 1: Understanding one's own culture is cultural self - awareness, not cultural competency.
• Option 2: Cultural competency is about effectively interacting with people from different cultures, as it involves skills to navigate cultural differences in communication and relationships.
• Option 3: Believing one culture is superior is ethnocentrism, not cultural competency.
• Option 4: Rejecting cultural diversity is against the idea of cultural competency which values diversity.

• Option 1: This is a repeat of the question, not an answer.
• Option 2: Motivational interviewing aims to empower clients to explore their own motivations and make their own decisions regarding behavior change, by resolving ambivalence.
• Option 3: Motivational interviewing is not about giving advice or solutions; it's about helping clients find their own reasons for change.
• Option 4: It does not involve controlling or directing clients' behaviors; it's a client - centered approach.
