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.
