Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

One appropriate reason might be when the target behavior is such that having an extended baseline would be unethical. For example, many experts, if not most, would argue that a student who is self-abusive should not be allowed to continue merely for the sake of obtaining baseline data. However, a very brief baseline period might be acceptable (B-A-B) to establish the functional relationship. In this instance, it would only be necessary to show a very brief change in trend or level of responding in the target behavior before returning to intervention (final B phase).
