#10

Which of the following is a limitation of a changing criterion design?

It is difficult to interpret

#11

What does the term 'functional analysis' refer to in behavioral intervention research?

Analyzing the function of behavior

Statistical analysis of treatment outcomes

Comparing multiple intervention strategies

Assessing treatment adherence

#12

What is the primary purpose of a token economy system in behavior modification?
