Jamie frequently falls to the floor and screams at school. Preliminary behavioral assessment data indicate that his tantrums are maintained by attention and escape from demand situations. Jamie's behavior analyst wants to examine precisely how attention and escape conditions affect these behaviors. The behavior analyst does not want to conduct the analysis in Jamie's classroom because she would not be able to control for potentially important factors. Relating to this scenario, which statement is TRUE?

A. Analyses that involve experimental conditions are almost always conducted in the person's natural environment.
B. The behavior analyst could conduct the analysis in a vacant classroom, but the generality of the findings is an issue to be considered.
C. The behavior analyst should conduct detailed interviews with the teacher and school staff to determine functional relations.
D. Only if the analysis is conducted in Jamie's classroom can a reasonable hypothesis be generated.
