All of the answers are correct.

Using punishment outside of a controlled laboratory environment can present several challenges. Punishment is often introduced at low intensities, which may not be effective in changing the behavior being targeted. Additionally, the chances of "getting caught" and receiving punishment may be low, reducing the deterrent effect of the punishment. Finally, often a discriminated punishment procedure is used, which can lead to unintended negative consequences, such as the target behavior increasing in frequency in other settings.
