Q

What are the 4 designs for collecting IRM-NS?

A
  • time-contingent recording (fixed time interval sampling)
  • signal-contingent recording (random time interval sampling)
  • event-contingent recording (event sampling)
  • burst design (periods of measurement interspersed w periods of no measurement; mix of 3 other methods)

Q

What are 5 benefits of IRM-NS?

A
  • less reliance on participant retrospective memories
  • less reliance on P to integrate info ab self
  • can provide contextual info
  • aggregation of multiple assessments increases reliability and validity
  • can use to characterize fluctuations and stability in indiv

Q

The social behavior inventory is an example of what method of measurement for IRM-NS? How does it work?

A
  • event-contingent recording method
  • forms to report interpersonal behaviors for 20d
  • recording instigated by social interaction event
  • typically report 6-7 events per day

Q

what scale development approach was used for the social behavior inventory?

A
  • construct approach
  • interpersonal circle model used to define constructs
  • gathered items from questionnaires and interviews
  • judges rated items
  • study to assess reliability and validity

Q

What does stability of behavior across different numbers of days suggest about the social behavior inventory?

A
  • similarly reliable @ 12d vs 20d so could shorten if needed!

Q

What is the internal consistency of behavior scales in the social behavior inventory?

A
  • corr btw items within each domain
  • low ish (mostly around .5)
  • not unsurprising bc domains are broad and few items per domain

Q

What is flux?

A
  • measure of intraindividual variability
  • basically SD in scores (how dramatically do scores fluctuate across days)
17
Q

What is spin?

A
  • measure of intraindividual variability
  • SD of all angular displacements
18
Q

What does it mean when a vector for behavior is further from the center of the behavior circle?

A
  • further from the center is more extreme
19
Q

What is the stability across weeks of spin and flux for the social behavior inventory?

A
  • pretty high for all!

Q

Social Behavior Inventory using ECR has:
- ____ stability
- ____ internal consistency
- ____ convergent and discriminant validity

A
  • HIGH stability
  • MODERATE internal consistency
  • GOOD convergent and discriminant validity
21
Q

What are 2 concerns w ECR w Social Behavior Inventory?

A
  • difficult to interpret meaning of indivs scores (no norms!)
  • target individuals might not comply
