Answer 5

Histogram

Summarizing data
Comparing data
Cartesian Plane
Shares features with line graph but does not have distinct data points

Question 6

Cumulative Record

Answer 6

Skinner,
Primary means of data collection in EAB
Shows # of responses on the y-axis against time on the x-axis
Almost always used with frequency data

Question 7

Overall Response Rate

Answer 7

Average rate of responses over a given period of time
Shown in decimal
Steeper the slope the higher the response rate

Question 8

Local Response Rate

Answer 8

Rate of response during given periods of time smaller than that in overall response rate
