touch nose
A process for teaching new skills, that involves breaking the skills up into smaller manageable steps, and repetitively working on it until the set mastery.
Duration
The amount of time that passes from the onset to the offset of a behavior.
Event Recording
Documenting the number of times a behavior occurs within a given period of time.
Free Operant
Behavior that is learned naturally in the environment, where we come into free contact with reinforcement or punishment.
Frequency
Simple count of behavior.
IRT
Inter-response time, the time it takes between one response and the start of the next response.
Latency
The amount of time it takes between the presentation of a stimulus or prompt and the response.
Magnitude
How intense the behavior is.
Measurement
The collection of quantitative or qualitative information.
Measurement of Permanent Product
The collection of information by how it physically effects the environment.
Momentary Time Sampling
Recording whether a behavior occurs at a specific moment in time.
Partial Interval Recording
Recording whether a behavior occurs, if it occurs at any moment during a given interval.
