When reporting results from a sampling procedure, what is the best way to describe the data?

"The behavior was observed in X% of the intervals."

Dead-man test

"if a dead man can do it, it ain't behavior, and if a dead man can't do it, then it is behavior"

Ravi is planning an intervention to address his client's "wandering" behaviors. Wandering is defined as being out of his seat when he should be in it, and moving from place to place within the classroom without obvious purpose (e.g., not going to the restroom, to throw something way, to get supplied, or to speak to the teacher). Which of the following measurement systems could Ravi use?

Partial Interval Recording

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

Partial interval

Continuous data recording involves:

Recording all instances of a behavior

Which of the following may be true of partial interval recording procedures?

They may overestimate the occurrence of the behavior.

When are discontinuous data collection measures used?

When behaviors occur at such high rates it would be very hard to get an accurate count

Jesse and Claire were collecting momentary time sampling data on the discrete behaviors of one of their students. They only marked the behavior's occurrence in 1 of 15 intervals. What should Jesse and Claire do to remedy this issue?

They should video record the session for more accuracy.

which of the following is true about trial by trial data collection?

Data are recorded on each trial presented

Which of the following is the best definition of data?

Data is a quantifiable dimension of a behavior

Why are trends sometimes necessary to include on line graphs?

Data paths are not always clear

baseline data

Is the measurement of the target behavior in its current natural state prior to the proposed intervention. Has several purposes: (1) gives you a quatitative view of the level of the target behavior, (2) basis for comparison, and (3) often used in designing the intitial behavioral criterion for reinforcement.

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

Line graph

Which of the following should be recorded on a naturalistic intervention data collection sheet?

Target behavior, prompt level, activity, materials, and number of times the target behavior was addressed.

Data collected during naturalistic teaching should always include information about:

Target behaviors, prompt levels needed, and activities

Which of the following recording procedures may underestimate the occurrence of a behavior?

Whole Interval Recording

Buster alternates between quiet and loud humming. which behavior recording method would be the best to use?

Whole interval, because it is hard to hear him humming at times.

A trend that ascends from left to right means:

a behavior is increasing

When using partial interval recording, the teacher notes the occurrence or non occurrence of the behavior ___?

any time during the interval

When using whole interval recording, the teacher notes the occurrence of non occurrence of the behavior ___?

only when the behavior occurs for the entire interval

Which of the following is an example of an operationally defined behavior?

sara drank her milk

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

phase change lines indicate:

the division between one condition and another

operationally defining

the prices of defining target behaviors using a precise definition that may include examples

Event recording is:

the same thing as frequency recording

Duration and latency recording both involve:

time

Which two recording procedures can be used with either discrete or continuous behaviors?

B. Partial Interval and Momentary Time Sampling

Olivia wants to measure the behaviors of her client, Theo. These behaviors include "tantruming", defined as laying on the floor, screaming or crying, and raising his arms and legs into the air and swinging them around. What type of behavior is "tantruming"?

Continuous

Which type of graph provides the most information about variability in the data?

Line Graph

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

Trial by Trial

when using momentary time sampling the teacher notes occurrence or nonoccurrence of the behavior__?

at the end of the interval

A teacher wants to collect data on the total time her students remain quiet during the weekly math test. Which data recording method would be least appropriate?

whole

Which of the following is a discontinuous data recording procedure?

whole Interval recording

Gene is planning to use a whole interval recording system for his student's behavior. In observations, Gene has noted that the behavior can last for up to 10 minutes and may occur 5 times per hour. Which of the following time intervals would be most appropriate for this data collection?

10 minutes

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.

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

cumulative graphs

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

duration

A continuous behavior is one that __________.

is of short duration and has a clear beginning and end

A discrete behavior is one that __________.

is of short duration and has a clear beginning and end

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 is a drawback of probe data?

it is less accurate

which of the following is true about data collection?

it is the foundation for creating behavioral interventions.
