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.

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. 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.
