Q

Lowest point is at .001 (1000 minutes). This represents one Occurrence of behavior in a single DAY.

Highest point is at 1000 and a depicts a behavior occurring 1000 times per minute

Celeration is change in rate over time.
Count/minute/day/week

Bottom axis = successive calendar days with THIN Vertical lines = Individual weekdays

Top axis = successive calendar week With Sunday = thick vertical lines.

Column between two Sunday lines is one calendar week.

Bottom left Is a standard Celeration fan-Depicts standard slopes and allows you to compare and achieved slope with the standard slope.

Q

Human behavior changes EXPONENTIALLY. Via Multiplication and Division

Y axis Allows us to predict human behavior more accurately because logarithmic nature of SCC Provides better representation of human behavior and changes in behavior than can be captured on traditional equal intervals line graph

Different than equal interval line graphs, which move up and down y-axis via addition and subtraction (by factor 1).

Left vertical axis different than most traditional graphs. One Moves up the access via MULTIPLICATION and Down via division. = logarithmic nature of chart

Q

Equal interval graphs do not use a standard data display, unit of time or measurement

problematic because you must always orient your audience and yourself to each unique graph.

Slopes are inflated as you MOVE up the scale.

Q

Calibration on the SCC involves setting a common START date across all charts you use

Three essential pieces of information for completing a daily record are there;
1. Counting time floor: The time spent actually recording. Calculated by dividing one by the total minutes spent recording. It is charted with a dash to horizontal line.
For timing. Less than a minute that counting time floor is calculated in one of two ways. First is to divide one by a fraction of a minute. The second option is to divide 60 by the number of seconds

  1. Frequency correct
  2. Frequency incorrect.

To track frequency, find where the day line and the frequency line intersect and chart at the intersection

A

Basic charting conventions on the SCC

28
Q

1) Counting Time Floor
2) Frequency Correct
3) Frequency Incorrect

To chart frequency,

Chart at Intersection

For timing. Less than a minute the counting time floor is calculated one of two ways.

1. divide one by a fraction of a minute
2. Divide 60 by the number of seconds

29
Q

Time spent actually recording

Calculated by dividing one by the total minutes spent recording

Always plotted with a dashed horizontal line

A

Counting time Floor – SCC

30
Q

Dividing the count by the number of minutes spent recording
OR
Multiplying count by counting time FLOOR.

Charting frequencies for timings greater than one minute: count / Number of minutes spent recording
OR
Multiplying the count by the counting time floor
Count x Counting Time Floor

For timings Less than one minute the frequency is charted by dividing the count by the fraction of a minute or multiplying count by the Counting time floor
Count/Fraction of a minute
Or
Count x Counting Time Floor

The standard unit of measurement on the SCC is count per minute

A

Charting frequencies

31
Q

Zero does not appear on the SCC because zero does not exist in the multiple world.

That is, anything multiplied by zero is zero. To chart a frequency of zero a data point, “X” or “?” Place just below the counting time floor

A

Charting frequencies

32
Q

Behavior has an opportunity to occur but is not observed or recorded.

When charting across these days, Connect data points between one observation and the next.

A

Ignore days

33
Q

The behavior does not have the opportunity to occur

Data points are not connected across these days

A

No chance days

34
Q

Phase change lines are charted the same as on other type graphs:
•Vertical line is added between changes and data points are not connected across phase change lines.

CELERATION lines are also not drawn across phase change lines

A

35
Q

Designed in seven days to make a chart to fit the full range of behavior on one single device

Many people think it looks odd and do not accept it

Used by many precision teaching professionals

Can use with full range of human behavior

Scale goes from 1000 per minute to one per day

Slope equals change in frequency or celebration

A

Celeration Chart

36
Q
  • Scale on the left is the number/count per minute, beginning with zero at the bottom and rising to 1000 on the daily chart. This scale is a multiply/divide logarithmic) Scale.
  • instead of being divided evenly, this scale is continuously divided. Since the spaces between the numbers are getting smaller we can’t by 1’s To the 10 Mark, then by 10’s to the 100 Mark, and by 100’s above that.
A

37
Q

The scale across the bottom:

Is an even scale (add-Subtract), and represents a Calendar Days.

Each THIICK vertical line on this bottom scale represents a Sunday.

Line to four Monday through Saturday or the thinner vertical lines. Each chart spends 20 weeks or 140 days

  • Distances between points and slopes remain the same always ( Standard, horizontal and vertical scales remain the same)
  • Not equal interval chart or add/subtract; it is an equal ratio scale
    • Multiply going up or divide going down equal distances
  • Time range of one second to 24 hour
  • Standard display of frequency, duration, celebration, latency, I RT, and variability (bounce)
  • Data points and slopes for these measurements on a specific date will always be in the same spot on a Celeration chart
