cooperative play

197
Q

Why are discontinuous measurement procedures used with discrete trial?

A

Because you are dividing the trials/intervals that you observed in order to get a percentage

198

A

Graph on cumulative graph

Assess & teach using a Multiple probe

Cumulative graph

A

Use with skill acquisition

Example: client is learning sight words, then you can graph how many they learn each day

203
Q

Changing criterion

A

Has to be in clients repertoire
Used when goals are changing within a specific goal
Example: math problems, one day client has to do 10 problems, the next day they have to do 20 problems

204

A

Happens at the same time

  1. Concurrent
  2. Alternative
  3. Conjunctive
205

Q

Matching to sample

A

if client errors, DON’T prompt, start new trial

209
