Question 2

Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

In a changing criterion design, the functional relationship is established by demonstrating that changes in the criterion for reinforcement directly impact the performance of the target behavior. When the researcher allows the participant to decrease the target behavior in response to a reduction in the criterion and then increase the target behavior once again in response to a change in criterion, she/he makes a better demonstration of the functional relationship.

Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.

Evidence supports the theory that shamans chewed cocoa leaves and drilled holes into the heads of patients (letting evil spirits escape), spitting into the wounds they made. The mixture of cocaine, saliva, and resin numbed the site enough to allow hours of drilling.

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.
