A procedure that can be used to measure a continuous behavior such as academic engagement is _____________________.   show
🗑
All of the following behaviors could be assessed using natural permanent product measurement except:   show
🗑
Permanent product measurement may be more accurate, complete, and continuous for all of the following reasons except:   show
🗑
show Planned activity check  
🗑
_________________ measurement facilitates data collection for interobserver agreement and treatment integrity.   show
🗑
A procedure that allows for the simultaneously recording of multiple behaviors across multiple dimensions is called ______________.   show
🗑
Measurement is the process of applying qualitative labels to events.   show
🗑
The number of response opportunities needed to achieve a predetermined level of performance is called trials-to-criterion.   show
🗑
A feature of data that appears to exist because of the way the data is measured or examined is called an artifact.   show
🗑
The amount of time that elapses between two consecutive instances of a response class is called response latency.   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
show Reliable  
🗑
show Artifacts  
🗑
show Human error  
🗑
show Drift  
🗑
_______________ ____________________ is the degree to which two or more independent observers report the same observed values after measuring the same events.   show
🗑
Which is a false statement about the requirements of IOA?   show
🗑
Measurement that is _____________ , ________________, and reliable yields the most trustworthy and useful data for science and science-based practices   show
🗑
Which of the following is not a factor that contributes to measurement error?   show
🗑
Measurement bias caused by observer expectations can be avoided by using _______ observers.   show
🗑
show Percentage of Agreement  
🗑
Scored – interval IOA is recommended for behaviors that occur at relative _________frequencies; unscored – interval IOA is recommended for behaviors that occur at relative _____________frequencies.   show
🗑
show True  
🗑
show False  
🗑
show False  
🗑
True values for some behaviors (e.g., compliance) are difficult because the process for determining true value must be different from the measurement procedures used to obtain the data one wishes to compare to the true value.   show
🗑
show False  
🗑
show Dynamic, on-going  
🗑
_____________ are relatively simple formats for visually displaying relationships among and between a series of measurements and relevant variables.   show
🗑
show Level, trend, variability  
🗑
show Judgmental aid  
🗑
show Line  
🗑
show Variability, trends  
🗑
On a cumulative record the steeper the slope, ____________ the response rate.   show
🗑
Logarithmic scales are well suited to display and communicate ______________________ change.   show
🗑
show Standard Celeration Chart  
🗑
show Celeration  
🗑
show Visual analysis  
🗑
show Level  
🗑
show Trend  
🗑
Graphs are not considered an effective source of feedback to the person whose behavior change is represented.    show
🗑
A cumulative record should be used if the target behavior can only occur once per measurement period.   show
🗑
You should always connect data points on a line graph, even if there is a condition change line.   show
🗑
Overall response rate refers to the average rate of response over a given time period.     show
🗑
If you believe the data on a graph are distorted by the scaling of the axes you should re-plot the data on a new graph before continuing with visual analysis.   show
🗑
show Three-term contingency  
🗑
A time sampling method for measuring behavior in which the observation period is divided into a series of brief time intervals (typically from 5 to 15 seconds). At the end of each interval, the observer records whether the target behavior occurred through   show
🗑
show AB design  
🗑
The variable in an experiment measured to determine if it changes as a result of manipulations of the independent variable; in applied behavior analysis, it represents some measure of a socially significant behavior. (See target behavior; compare with ind   show
🗑
show Experimental design  
🗑
show Independent variable  
🗑
A wide variety of research designs that use a form of experimental reasoning called baseline logic to demonstrate the effects of the independent variable on the behavior of individual subjects. Can be considered the most frequently used design in behavio   show
🗑
show Applied behavior analysis  
🗑
show Replication  
🗑
Occurs when the behavior that is measured is the same as the behavior that is the focus of the investigation.   show
🗑
Occurs when the behavior that is measured is in some way different from the behavior of interest; considered less valid than direct measurement because inferences about the relation between the data obtained and the actual behavior of interest are require   show
🗑
show Alternating treatments design  
🗑
show B.F. Skinner  
🗑
In changing criterion design each phase of the design provides a ______ for the following phase.   show
🗑
An experimental design used to evaluate the effects of treatment in a graduated or step-wise fashion for a single behavior. Uses prediction and replication to show experimental control.   show
🗑
show Duration recording  
🗑
An experiment has a high degree of _______ when the experiment shows convincingly that changes in behavior are a function of the independent variable and not the result of uncontrolled or unknown variables.   show
🗑
show Latency  
🗑
show Momentary Time Sample  
🗑
show Partial interval recording  
🗑
The extent to which a measurement procedure yields the same value when brought into repeated contact with the same state of nature.   show
🗑
show ABAB Design  
🗑
The degree to which a study's findings have generality to other subjects, settings, and/or behaviors.   show
🗑
