State laws can influence decision making in all the ways listed except **A. Beneficence and maleficence**.

Beneficence and maleficence are ethical principles that guide professional behavior, particularly in healthcare and human services, and are not directly dictated by state laws. The other options—timelines for reporting suspected child abuse, who can legally provide consent for a child, and custodial versus noncustodial parental rights—are all governed by state laws.
