Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

John Watson, the founder of behaviorism, and B. F. Skinner, the creator of operant conditioning, believed that psychology should be viewed as a natural science and, as is the case for all natural sciences, only study phenomena that are observable and measurable. To understand, predict, and control human behavior, then, psychologists should only study stimuli, people's responses to those stimuli, the consequences that follow people's responses, and people's responses to those consequences.
