What is Continuous Measurement?
Recording every instance of the target behavior during a specific time period.
What are the key methods of Continuous Measurement?
Frequency and Duration.
What does Frequency measure?
Counting total occurrences of a behavior.
What does Duration measure?
Tracking total time spent engaging in a behavior.
What is Discontinuous Measurement?
Recording behavior occurrence during specific intervals.
What is Partial Interval in Discontinuous Measurement?
Check if behavior occurs during set time segments and calculate the percentage of intervals.
What is Momentary Time Sampling?
Observe behavior at exact moment intervals.
What are the practical applications of Discontinuous Measurement?
Periodic checks of student engagement and sampling behavioral patterns without constant observation.
What is the purpose of entering recorded behavior data into a graph?
To visually display metrics over time.
What are Preference Assessments?
Identify reinforcing stimuli to motivate desired behaviors.
What are the types of Assessment in Preference Assessments?
Paired choice and Free operant.
What does ABC stand for in ABC Data Collection?
Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence.
What are the components of ABC Data Collection?
Antecedent, Behavior, and Consequence.
What is Discrete Trial Teaching (DTT)?
A structured teaching methodology with multiple learning opportunities.
What are the characteristics of DTT?
Structured skill breakdown, multiple learning opportunities, and consistent reinforcement.
What is Naturalistic Teaching?
An approach that leverages real world contexts for skill development.
What is Chaining in behavioral modification?
Breaking complex tasks into manageable components.
What are the types of Chaining?
Forward chaining and Backward chaining.
What is Shaping?
Gradually reinforcing behavior approximations.
What are the key principles of Client Dignity and Professional Boundaries?
Respect client autonomy, maintain professional distance, and prioritize client’s rights and independence.
What are the BACB Supervision Requirements?
Regular supervision from a certified behavior analyst and documented supervision activities.
What is Prompting?
Providing cues to encourage correct responses and gradually reducing assistance.
What is Stimulus Control Transfer?
Shifting behavior triggers from artificial to natural cues.
What is a Token System?
A reinforcing method that uses symbolic rewards.
