Measurements Flashcards
• how OFTEN an RBT collects data ?
Daily, Each session at the end of each session
• while collecting data a NEW behavior NEVER SEEN BEFORE appears:
inform supervisor
• Rbt have a QUESTION/UNSURE/UNCLEAR when collecting a data:
inform supervisor
• who is responsible of DETERMINE THE PROGRESS/ MONITORING/OVERSEEN:
BCBA
• who is RESPONSIBLE for collecting data
RBT
Bar Graph: Which option needs innervation ?
• ALWAYS look at the highest bar
• look at the name on the X axis
• select the name on the X axis as the correct choice
WHich coordinate REPRESENT HORIZONTAL AXIS in a bar graph ?
X - axis
WHich coordinate REPRESENT ABSCISSA AXIS in a bar graph ?
X-axis
WHich coordinate REPRESENT VERTICAL AXIS in a bar graph ?
Y-axis
WHich coordinate REPRESENT ORDINATE AXIS in a bar graph ?
Y - axis
CCL in a lineal graph
Conditioned change line between baseline and intervention
1st line is always
Baseline
Dotted line means
Enviromental change
Types of tendencies ?
Zero , increase , decrease
First and last dot are the same level, which type of tendency is this ?
Zero
First and last dot are the same level, which type of tendency is this ?
Zero
First dot is low / second dot higher. Which type of tendency is this ?
Increase
First dot is high / second dot lower. which type of tendency is this ?
Decrease
First dot is high / second dot lower. which type of tendency is this ?
Decrease
Short distance between peaks. Which type of variability is this ?
Low variability
Long distance between peaks. Which type of variability is this ?
High variability
Cummulative graphs never
Decrease
Cumulative graphs are always
Increasing
How to determine the types of scale in a scatterplot graph ?
Y axis: Look at the number to see by how much they increase
Types of correlation in a scatterplot graph
Positive
Negative
No correlation
Types of correlation in a scatterplot graph
Positive
Negative
No correlation
All points increasing is which type of correlation in the scatterplot graph
Positive correlation
All points decreasing is which type of correlation in the scatterplot graph
Negative correlation
All points in no order is which type of correlation in the scatterplot graph
No correlation
Continuous measure
Frequency
Duration
Rate
Latency
IRT
Frequency
How many times / how often
Frequency most common used instrument
Clicker
Frequency: key words
Count, number of, times, each instances
Duration
Amount of time between the beginning and the end
How long the behavior last
Duration: key words
Amount of time, last, onset to offset, length of time
Rate: formula
Frequency / time in hrs always
Latency
How quickly or slow a behavior occured after a given order
Latency: key words
It takes, late, “ ” , ( )
IRT
Time between two successive responses
Scream -> break -> scream again
Discontinuous measure
1) whole interval
2) partial interval
3) momentary time sampling: MTS
Behavior keeps repeating for the whole given time. Is what type of discontinuous measure
Whole interval
Whole interval: key terms
Entire
Complete
Behavior occurs in pieces for the given time
Partial interval
Partial interval: key words
ANY
Behavior only happens at the end when the time runs out
MTS: momentary time sampling
MTS: key words
END
LAST
FINAL
Indirect measure
Interviews
Permanent Product
Indirect Measure: INTERVIEW
Observations made by others (parent) NOT BY THE BRT
Indirect Measure: permanent product
RBT tell the patient to do an activity, leave the room and come back, time does not matter as long as the patient does the activity
Rbt only wants to see the results
Indirect measure: permanent product : key words
Outcome
Result
Leave evidence
Complete
Indirect measure: permanent product: calculation
X: completed task
O: non completed task
% = total completed / total task x 100
Pica behavior
Kids that eats objects that are non food like, pencils, crayons ….
Elope behavior
Kids that like to escape from school, house anywhere
Elope behavior
Kids that like to escape from school, house anywhere
