C07 Design and Implement Sampling Procedures Part 2 Flashcards
If the data collector no longer has to observe for the remainder of the interval once she records the behavior, she is using a
Time sampling measurement procedure
Partial interval recording tends to
Underestimate high frequency behavior
Whole interval recording tends to
Underestimate duration
Which of the following are discontinuous measurement procedures?
Momentary time sampling, partial and whole-interval recording
Which of the following properties are recorded using continuous measurement procedures?
Frequency, duration
Time sampling data collection
All the above: Are popular Procedures have some inherent error Yields data that are reported as percentages
For behaviors that are largely continuous or do not have clear onset or offset, if your goal is to increase the duration of the behavior, the behavior should be measured using
Whole interval recording
Momentary time sampling data collection
Is used when the data collector cannot observe all of the time
An advantage of continuous measurement relative to discontinuous measurement is that it
Is more accurate
For behaviors that are largely continuous or do not have clear onset or offset, if your goal is to reduce behavior, the behavior should be measured using
Partial interval recording
Time sampling recording procedures are particularly well suited for
Behaviors that do not have a discrete beginning or ending
Time sampling measurement refers to recording the occurrence of behavior when exhibited
During an entire interval, part of an interval, or at a particular moment at the end of an interval
Which measurement procedures are listed from most accurate to least accurate for measuring discrete behaviors with consistent duration?
Event recording, short partial interval recording, long partial interval recording, momentary time sampling
Continuous measurement refers to recording
Every occurrence of a target behavior during a particular observation period.
Discontinuous measurement may refer to recording the occurrence of behavior when exhibited
All the above:
During an entire interval
Any time during an interval
At a particular moment at the end of an interval.
