You're observing Ms. Clayton's class, where the students are seated in pairs. Ms. Clayton is working with one pair near the door of the classroom. As you observe, you see Rosa and Alex, seated near the window, begin drifting off-task, particularly because Rosa is pretending to poke Alex with the tip of her very sharp pencil. They persist playfully for a few minutes, giggling softly. Ms. Clayton

becomes aware that something is going on when Alex shrieks loudly. Ms. Clayton says, "Alex! Stop doing that right now and get back to work!" Given what you know about what happens when a teacher calls on the wrong student in a behavioral situation, which of the following is most likely to happen?

a. After Ms. Clayton looks away, Rosa is likely to continue/resume the inappropriate behavior.
b. Both Rosa and Alex are likely to resume on-task behavior and continue it for the duration of the lesson.
c. Alex and Rosa are likely to return to work, but students in Ms. Clayton's group are likely to start being off task.
d. Rosa and Alex's misbehavior is likely to escalate into a physical altercation.
