[FinB] Khang, a behavior analyst, is implementing a changing criterion design where their client is trying to decrease calories consumed per day until they reach a healthy amount. Khang reviews the data during one of the sub phases looking at the variability and trend. Which type of analysis is Khang conducting? 

  [FinB] The data in the graph above indicate:

[FinB] Herman wants to achieve a healthy weight and lifestyle. Since Herman works from home, he creates an indoor gym in a spare room. For the first week after creating his at-home gym, Herman plans to exercise for 30 minutes each day. For the second week, he wants to increase his exercise time to 40 minutes per day. He will continue to increase the time spent exercising for 5 minutes longer each week until he meets his goal weight. Given this scenario, which of the following is a short-term objective?

[FinB] Dalisay wants to review important literature on a particular behavioral procedure.  She finds and reviews a recent article on the procedure in a prestigious peer-reviewed journal. She is now looking to review, compare, and contrast a variety of other published articles on this topic. Which section of the research article is the best place for Dalisay to find this information?

[FinB] Brea is a behavior analyst working with one of her clients to reduce their self-injurious behavior. When testing the effects of two interventions on reducing instances of self-injurious behavior, Brea notes that the pattern of responding established in one of her treatment conditions appears to persist despite a return  to the baseline condition. The results of these data are most likely being impacted by which confound?

[FinB] Jami, a behavior analyst, is working with several clients on decreasing dribbling spit, with the dependent variable being the appropriate use of a replacement item (such as a chew, food item, etc.). The behavior is potentially harmful to reverse, and the parents of each client request that treatment not be removed for a return to baseline. Which experimental design would be most appropriate for the behavior analyst to use?

When a skeletal muscle fiber is stimulated, the signal runs down the T‑tubules and causes calcium (Ca²⁺) to spill out of the storage “tank” that sits right next to each T‑tubule. Which part of the triad is this main calcium storage tank?  

[FinB] Alexi is trying to quickly find a journal article describing a behavior management strategy that can be implemented in a typical classroom for several students. Which section of a research article is the best place for Alexi to find this information?
