A) determining authorship, no contact with the topography of the response, assuming one-to-one correspondence
B) determining authorship, assuming one-to-one correspondence, they are transitory in duration
C) determining authorship, they are transitory in duration, no contact with the topography of the response

The three possible problems are: determining authorship, no contact with the topography of the response, and assuming one-to-one correspondence. These issues complicate interpreting data because it's hard to identify who made the response, the response's form or manner is not directly observed, and there's an incorrect assumption that each response product corresponds to a single type of behavior.
