Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Answer should include: Treatment drift occurs when the application of the independent variable during later stages of the experiment differs from the way the treatment as applied at the outset of the study. Treatment drift is a threat to the internal validity of a study. Low treatment integrity is a major source of confound in an experiment, making it difficult, or impossible, to interpret the results with confidence.
