Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Counterbalancing is a mechanism for controlling order effects either by including all orders of treatment presentations or by randomly determining the order for each participant. This controls for order effects, which occur when the order of the conditions has an effect on the dependent variable. Order effects are problematic for within-subjects designs.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
