RBT Module 5 Flashcards
Minor changes to treatment or the environment, sometimes depicted as broken vertical lines on a graph (2 words)
Condition changes
Involves continuous observation of the individual and directly measures characteristics of behavior (2 words)
Continuous measurement
A series of straight lines connecting data points within a phase or condition (2 words)
Data path
The primary focus for analysis and interpretation on an equal-interval line graph (2 words)
Data path
Depicted on an equal-interval line graph, it is the value of the target behavior at a given point in time (2 words)
Data point(s)
These types of measurement procedures are not intended to capture every instance of behavior, but rather a sample of behavior (2 words)
Discontinuous measures
Classifying responses, prompts, or products of behavior based on a coding system (2 words)
Discrete categorization
A continuous form of data collection that is a measure of the length of a response
Duration
The amount of time that each instance of the target behavior occurs (3 words)
Duration per occurrence
The most commonly used type of graph in ABA (4 words)
Equal-interval line graph
A concise statement on a graph that provides you with sufficient information to identify the target behaviors and the interventions (2 words)
Figure legend
The number of times a response occurs (simple count)
Frequency
X-axis on an equal-interval line graph that typically represents the passage of time (2 words)
Horizontal axis
States what time periods are represented by each successive data point (3 words)
Horizontal axis label
The time between two successive responses (3 words)
Inter-response time (IRT)
The amount of time between an antecedent stimulus and a response
Latency
Observer records a response as having occurred only if it occurs at the end of the interval (when the timer goes off) (3 words)
Momentary time sample (MTS)
Observer records a response as having occurred if it occurred at any time during the recording interval (3 words)
Partial interval recording (PIR)
Calculated by dividing the number of correct responses by the total number of responses (correct and incorrect) and multiplying by 100 (2 words)
Percent correct
Calculated by dividing the amount of time the response(s) lasted by the total time observed, then multiplying by 100 (2 words)
Percent duration
Calculated by dividing the number of target responses by the total number of opportunities to respond and multiplying by 100 (2 words)
Percent occurrence
A ratio that expresses the likelihood that some event would occur if given 100 opportunities to occur
Percentage
The results of behavior or something that the behavior leaves behind that can be measured (2 words)
Permanent product
Major change to treatment or the environment represented by a solid vertical line on a graph (2 words)
Phase change
