Answer to Question 1

less; satiated

Answer to Question 2

The competing behaviors are watching TV, talking on the telephone, and going to parties. To remove the discriminative stimulus, you could hide the remote for the TV, possibly hiding the telephone, and asking friends not to invite her out until her apartment is clean. To present an abolishing operation, you could have her watch 30 minutes of TV so she doesn't want to watch any more, talk on the telephone for 15 minutes so she doesn't feel like talking on the phone, and socializing with friends so that she won't feel like going out. To increase the response effort, you could hide the remote so it would take more effort to watch TV, hide the telephone so it would take more effort to talk on the telephone, and live farther away from friends so that going to parties is more effortful.
