I’m stuck between B and C. I know social validity is important, but primary importance sounds familiar too. What if both are relevant?

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about parsimony being about simplicity in interventions. That doesn't seem right for this question.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know it has something to do with the real-world impact of the intervention, but I can't quite remember the specific term. I'll have to think it through carefully.

A. Parsimony? Really? That's more about the simplicity of the intervention, not its effectiveness in changing behavior. B. Social validity is the way to go here.
