Which of the following graphs indicate the total number of behaviors in an additive fashion?

Which of the following is true about data collection?

It is the foundation for creating behavioral interventions.

The process of defining target behaviors using a precise definition is called:

Operationally defining the behavior

Which of the following data recording procedures is best used for behaviors that have a clear ending and beginning, do not occur throughout an interval, but still occur at high rates?

Partial interval

Phase change lines indicate:

The division between one condition and another

Which of the following is operationally defined?

Hitting so hard a picture fell of the wall

The x axis on a graph is:

Horizontal and is also called the abscissa

Why would the prompt level necessary to perform the skill be an important part of data collection?

Skills performed with prompts are not mastered until they are performed without prompts

If a learner is requiring more and more prompting to perform a skill, the first concern is:

The learner is becoming prompt dependent.

Data are plotted on line graphs according to:

The number of instances of the behavior across time

A disadvantage of bar graphs is:

The variability of data can be lost.

Why are trends sometimes necessary to include on line graphs?

Data paths are not always clear

If data indicate that progress is not being made, which of the following questions could be asked?

Is the skill program being delivered effectively?

Which of the following types of graphs are most preferred in the field of ABA?

Line graphs

Data collected during naturalistic teaching should always include information about:

Target behaviors, prompt levels needed, and activities

What is true about data collection?

It is the foundation for creating behavioral interventions.

A trend that ascends from left to right means:

A behavior is increasing

Recently, Mario's tantrums seem to last longer. Which data recording procedure might be the best one to use to determine this?

Duration

Susan records data after every discrete trial she delivers. What type of data recording is this?

Trial by trial

Cumulative graphs are used:

When progress toward a predetermined number of behaviors should be demonstrated

Which data recording method would be best used to measure the time between when a teacher said to start on an assignment and the time the student started on the assignment?

Latency

Why is it important to record data as close to the time the behavior actually occurred as possible?

So the data will be more likely to reflect an accurate picture of the behavior

A disadvantage of bar graph is:

The variability of data can be lost.

What is an example of discontinuous data recording procedure?

Whole interval recording

What is a drawback of probe data?

It is less accurate.

Which of the following is a drawback of probe data?

It is less accurate.

Visual inspection is:

Making a judgement about the effects of an intervention by examining graphed data

What type of graphs indicate the total number of behaviors in an additive fashion?

Cumulative graphs

Which of the following describes how probe data is collected?

Collect data on the first 3 trials and if responding is independent, discontinue data collection.
