Interresponse time (IRT)
Continuous Tracking/recording behavior during a particular sample of time
*Observation period is broken into smaller intervals
Observing whether a behavior occurs or does not occur during
specified time periods
F *Data taken in intervals (ex. Measuring a client's falling. The
r BCBA may have 15 minute intervals set up for a 2 hour session and
e the RBT will only put a tally if the client falls during that 15 minute
q interval. The RBT may put a + or a - in that interval slot
u indication whether or not the behavior occurred.)
e
Observing whether a behavior occurs or does not occur
n
throughout the entire specified interval of time
c
*A behavior is recorded if it occurred within the ENTIRE interval of
y
time (If they behavior occurs at all within the entire 2 hour
session)
D
u Observing and recording whether client engaged or did not
r engage in the behavior at the very end of the specified interval
a of time
t *Data is taken on a behavior at the end of the interval (ex. A RBT
i may only take data at the end of a 5 minute interval. If the
