An underlying assumption of the multiple probe design isFthat
-
continuous probe data collection is unnecessary for a skill that doesn't exist and which is not currently bei
ng trained.
-
it is unnecessary to collect probe data on multiple skills at once. Only collect probe data on the skill that
was just taught, you are currently teaching or you are about to teach.
-
If probe data are not collected continuously, the intervals between probe data collection periods should b
e consistent
-
continuous probe data collection is unnecessary for a skill that does not exist and which is not currently b
eing trained. CORRECT ANSWER
continuous probe data collection is unnecessary for a skill that does not exist and which is not currently b
eing trained.
The multiple probe design
-
employs a multiple baseline assessment strategy applied to the acquisition of behavioral performances c
omprised of similar, but functionally independent behaviors
-
is designed to assess how training some members of a group in a particular behavior affects the performa
nce of that behavior by untrained members
, -
makes the assumption that frequent measurement of a behavior that is not in the learner's repertoire wil
l be learned as similar, functionally independent behaviors are learned
-(all of the above) CORRECT ANSWER
employs a multiple baseline assessment strategy applied to the acquisition of behavioral performances c
omprised of similar, but functionally independent behaviors
You intervene sequentially in the classroom, cafeteria, and bus. This describes a
-multiple baseline across settings design
-multiple baseline across behaviors design
-multiple baseline across individuals design CORRECT ANSWER multiple baseline across settings design
When using a multiple baseline across behaviors design,
-achieve stable responding for all target behaviors before intervening, if possible
-use one intervention across three behaviors that are part of the same response class
-use three interventions across three behaviors that are not part of the same response class
CORRECT ANSWER achieve stable responding for all target behaviors before intervening, if
possible
You are implementing a multiple probe design to evaluate a procedure for teaching a three-
step task. How should you begin/
-
Collect one to three probe measures for each step. If the data indicate a low, stable trend for all of the be
haviors, begin the intervention with the first step. Once the intervention is begun, do not collect any mea
sures on the second and third steps.
