UNIT 1 SAFMEDS Flashcards
behavioral assessment includes:
systemically gathering information
behavioral assessment data help:
make data based decisions about behavior and the environment.
assessment scope: degree of:
focus on the issue in an assessment
assessment scope: range of:
information gathered
assessment fidelity:
accuracy of information gathered.
referral problem:
case is outlined; presenting problem is evaluated.
preliminary assessment does NOT:
include direct observation.
indirect assessment does NOT:
include direct observation
indirect assessment gathers behavior information:
through descriptions and recollections.
indirect assessment does NOT
include direct observation
records review uses:
written documents and archival data
structured forms gather information through:
written questions
direct and indirect assessments gather:
information about behavior and the environment.
records review uses:
written documents and archival data
behavioral interview: questions asked of:
consumer(s) and stakeholder(s)
direct assessment observed behavior:
in real time and in the environment where it occurs
direct assessment observed behavior:
in real time and in the environment where it occurs
descriptive assessment: type
direct assessment
descriptive assessment: behavior observed and measured:
in real life context
descriptive assessment: observed WITHOUT
manipulation of environmental variables
narrative recording: observer produces
written description of individual’s behavior
narrative recording: description includes information on:
behavior and environmental conditions in which the behavior occurs
ABC data collection includes information on:
target behavior, antecedent, and consequence.
Sequence analysis finds relation between
environmental events and target behaviors
scatterplot: data collection form for:
recording times of day when the target behavior occurs
scatterplots often involve:
dividing days of the week into blocks of time
pattern analysis uses:
scatterplot data
pattern analysis identifies when:
behavior occurs or does not occur.
pattern analysis: identifies behavior occurring under certain:
time frames and environmental contexts
data collection occurs across conditions to assess
probabilities of behavior in different environmental context
internal validity: extent to which assessment findings:
accurately represent occurrence in natural environment.
external validity: extent to which assessment findings:
hold true different environmental conditions and/or time
ultimate outcomes are the:
final goals of service
ultimate outcomes are functional statements about:
what a person wants to accomplish and attain in their life
intermediate outcomes are
accomplishable goals
intermediate outcomes: bring a person closer to:
achieving ultimate outcomes
sequential immediate outcomes must be:
completed in a specific order
concurrent intermeidate outcomes are goals:
worked on together at the same time.
sequential and intermediate outcomes are stepping stones to help:
person attain their ultimate outcomes
short-term objectives provide:
measurable criterion for change.
short term objectives: change occurs across
some dimension of the target behavior.
methods of behavioral assessment (3):
preliminary indirect, direct naturalistic observation and systematic manipulation
Can’t do - refers to:
skill deficit
Won’t do - refers to:
performance problem
preliminary assessment: scope is:
broad
preliminary assessment: fidelity is:
low
“Tell me” method refers to:
indirect assessment
Indirect assessment: scope is:
medium
indirect assessment: fidelity is:
low-medium
“show me” method refers to:
direct assessment
Descriptive assessmen: scope is:
medium but narrow
Descriptive assessment: fidelity is:
low-medium but rising
narrative recording method: summary method:
sequence analysis
ABC Data: summary method:
sequence analysis
scatterplot data: summary method:
pattern analysis
