BRM Midterm Test Q&A 2023/2024

BRM Midterm Test Q&A When the outcomes can be generalized (validity) External validity What's manipulated or the intervention Independent Variable Factors that create ambiguity in outcomes Confounding Variable What's measured to judge outcomes Dependent Variable When the design and data make it possible to make causal or functional arguments (validity) Internal Validity Which of the following is not a role of the Scientist-Practitioner Model? Practitioner as researcher Consumer of research Evaluator of own interventions Practitioner as a benefactor practitioner as a benefactor Internal validity, social validity of change and effect size all contribute to Strength of findings Which of the following is a dimension of Applied Behavior Analysis and Single Case Design? Reliable Accountable Analytic Mysterious analytic Group Comparison Design is a more scientifically valid research method than Single Case Design. (T/F) false Single case design should be considered when progress monitoring allowing for flexibility in changing intervention may be needed. (T/F) true This aspect of ethics involves an understanding the research including who is doing what, where, when, how often, why, data use and risks. consent Which is NOT a characteristic of an intervention chosen to use in research? Likely to produce effects. Most restrictive procedure. Can be supported in the environment. Most effective procedure. Most restrictive procedure Using punishment as a research procedure requires additional review. (T/F) true There is only one type of replication. (T/F) false During intervention for negative behaviors, it is important to gather data regarding: (2) negative behavior; replacement behavior The use of fictitious names and locations in research reports is an example of what feature of ethics? confidentiality Plagiarism is not a concern in professional research. (T/F) false Support and follow-up after an intervention is: Sometimes included as a phase of the research design Never needed Not recommended None of the above Sometimes included as a phase of the research design Rate of behavior frequency per unit of time Amount of time behavior occurs duration Correct number of problems solved accuracy How long it takes before response occurs latency What can be affected by reactivity, drift and bias? Interobserver agreement In this type of discontinuous measure, the session is broken into intervals and defined behavior is checked if occurs at the end of the interval Momentary Time Sampling In this type of discontinuous measure, the session is broken into intervals and the defined behavior is checked if it occurs for the entire interval. Whole Interval In this type of discontinuous measure, the session is broken into intervals and defined behavior is checked if it occurs at any point in the interval Partial Interval Which of the following is NOT a procedure for measuring behavior in ABA? Permanent products Continuous observation Discontinuous measurement Indirect observation through projectives Indirect observation through projectives Interobserver agreement can be calc
