Quiz 5

Question 1

Basic design involves measuring a behavioral baseline, then attempting to induce some behavioral change

Answer 1

Single-subject designs

Question 2

what are the types of single-subject designs

Answer 2

Treatment-Withdrawal
Extinction
Reversal

Question 3

type of single-subject designs, when levels return to baseline after a reinforcer (i.e., treatment condition) is removed

Answer 3

Extinction

Question 4

type of single-subject design actively moves behavior back toward baseline (i.e., negative treatment condition)

Answer 4

Reversal

Question 5

What are the three types of multiple baseline desing?

Answer 5

1. across behaviors
2. across subjects
3. across settings

Question 6

What are the three E’s of experimental design treatment?

Answer 6

Efficacy
Effectiveness
Efficiency

Question 7

What are the basic categories of experimental designs?

Answer 7

1. pre-experimental
2. quasi-experimental
3. true experimental

Question 8

No control group or untreated controls is what type of category for experimental designs?

Answer 8

pre-experimental

Question 9

control group not matched to treatment group is what type of category for experimental designs?

Answer 9

quasi-experimental

Question 10

matched control group is what type of category for experimental designs?

Answer 10

true-experimental

Question 11

What is the guiding principle for types of experimental designs?

Answer 11

use the best design possible for the situation

Question 12

What are the three pre-experimental designs?

Answer 12

1. one-shot case study
2. one-group pretest-posttest: within-subjects
3. static-group comparison: between-subjects design

Question 13

What are the two quasi-experimental designs?

Answer 13

1. non-equivalent control group: groups are chosen based on convenience
2. time-series: within-subjects

Question 14

What are the types of true experimental designs?

Answer 14

1. Randomized pretest-posttest control-group
2. Solomon randomized four-group

Question 15

This type of true experimental design is the strongest level of evidence due to matched groups and equivalent testing conditions

Answer 15

randomized pretest-posttest control-group

Question 16

Done first with adults and systematically replicated with children is called what?

Answer 16

replication (i.e., randomize pretest-posttest control-group)

Question 17

two treatment groups in a randomized pretest-posttest control-group is called what?

Answer 17

multigroup extension

Question 18

This type of true experimental design attempts to control for reactive pretest effects - two groups don’t get pretested

Answer 18

Solomon randomized four-group

Question 19

Why is it important to have a control group?

Answer 19

Allows researchers to confirm hat study results are due to the manipulation of IVs rather than extraneous variables

Question 20

What are the three things efficacious treatments should have?

Answer 20

1. therapeutic effect
2. clinical significance
3. personal significance

Question 21

Does it work in clinical trials?

Answer 21

efficacy

Question 22

does it work in clinical practice?

Answer 22

effectiveness

Question 23

does it contribute to a more efficient use of resources?

Answer 23

efficiency
