F09 Interpret Functional Assessment Data Part 1

Question 1

Functional analysis data are normally analyzed by

Answer 1

Visual inspection

Question 2

When interpreting functional analysis data the primary comparisons are between the rates of behavior during a given test condition and the

Answer 2

Play condition

Question 3

The relatively low rate in the demand condition supports an automatic reinforcement function. Why?

Answer 3

Behavior requested in the demand condition may compete with behavior maintained by automatic reinforcement.

Question 4

On a graph displaying data from a functional analysis, the variable on the y-axis is the

Answer 4

Number of occurrences of the target behavior

Question 5

Aside from the data being largely undifferentiated, why is an automatic reinforcement function the best hypothesis?

Answer 5

Behavior prompted in the demand condition may compete with behavior maintained by automatic reinforcement, resulting in a reduced rate.

Question 6

To make sure the following graph is not due to an inability to distinguish between conditions, you could?

Answer 6

Conduct an extended alone condition

Question 7

On a graph displaying data from a functional analysis, the variable on the x-axis is the

Answer 7

Session number
