F08 Conduct Functional Analysis of Problem Behavior Part 4 Flashcards
An anecdotal assessment is a type of
Indirect assessment
Before performing a formal or informal behavioral assessment, the behavior analyst must be sure he has
The authority and permission to do so
Generally, a scatter plot
Can be helpful when the target behavior occurs infrequently
For a behavioral assessment, a narrative recording should be the same as
All the above:
An anecdotal recording, a descriptive analysis, an ABC reocrding
If the name of the assessment includes “description” or “descriptive” then the assessment procedure
Will include direct observation of the client behavior
For a behavioral assessment, a narrative recording should be the same as
A descriptive analysis
All behavioral assessments should identify
Competing contingecies
Three distinct approaches to determine the function of a behavior are
Direct assessments, indirect assessments, and functional analyses
The primary ways of obtaining information for a behavioral assessment are
Interviews, checklists, tests, and direct observations
Terms for a procedure to determine the function of a behavior by experimentally controlling the independent variables and measuring the target behavior include
Functional analysis, experimental analysis, analogue assessment, and in-situ hypothesis testing
Generally, a scatter plot
All the above:
Captures the frequency of behavior but not antecedents or consequences.
Can be helpful when the target behavior occurs infrequently.
May involve a teacher recording occurrences of the target behavior.
If the name of the assessment procedure includes ABC, then
It requires direct observation of the client behavior and recording the antecedent, behavior, and consequence
