a. Authors note that maintenance data (see the figures) were above baseline levels for all par‑ticipants. However, performance was variable across participants and across maintenance probes. How would you account for the variabil‑ity? b. What recommendations would you make for strengthening this research investigation to dem‑onstrate more convincingly a functional relation‑ ship between variables and
