Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

One subject is selected who demonstrates the same target behavior in the different settings. Baseline data are collected in all 3 settings. As the subject receives intervention in setting 1, settings 2 & 3 continue in baseline phase. When setting 1 reaches criterion performance of the target behavior, then the independent variable is implemented in setting 2 . The process is repeated until the subject also receives the independent variable in setting 3 . The dependent and independent variables are the same in each setting with the same subject.
