Chapter 5 wk 3 Flashcards
1
Q
Measurement
A
- a set of rules
- creates systematic and objective criteria
- behaviors or events
- ensures accuracy, believability and meaningfulness of targeted behaviors
2
Q
Reversible
A
- target behaviors that will revert to baseline levels if intervention stops
3
Q
Non-reversible
A
- target behaviors that aren’t permanent
- changes will maintain when an intervention is gone
4
Q
Continuous
A
- method of data collection
- counting or timing each instance of the behavior
- Superior to non-continuous
5
Q
Non-Continuous
A
- data collection method
- sampling behavior occurrence to estimate the actual count or time
6
Q
Onset
A
- the moment a behavior starts to occur
7
Q
Offset
A
- the moment a behavior stops
8
Q
Latency
IEP goal: starting task
A
- the time between a prompt and the onset of the target behavior
9
Q
Inter-response Time
A
- the time between the offset of a behavior and onset of the next behavior occurrence
10
Q
Event Recording
A
- to measure events by showing how many occur (tally)
11
Q
Timed Event Recording
A
- an event has occurred
- the time of the event
12
Q
Free-operant events
A
- events that are free to occur at any time
13
Q
Trial-Based events
A
- events that have specific ANTECEDENT CONDITIONS
14
Q
Rate
A
- the number of responses per unit of time (count/time)
- count = number of responses
- time = observation period in which the count was obtained
15
Q
Partial Interval Recording (PIR)
A
- the behavior is recorded at any time during the interval
- most widely used in the field
