Answer to Question 1

D
The ABA design does not include counterbalancing. When performance increases over all 3 conditions, it is impossible to conclude what caused the increase.

Answer to Question 2

A
The ABA design is a repeated measures design; hence there are no separate groups.. The alternate hypothesis states that there will be a difference among the groups, but does not say where or how many of the means will differ.

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.
