Exam Questions and CORRECT Answers
Purpose of Multi Element Design - CORRECT ANSWER - to determine which
intervention is effective
Characteristics of Multi Element Design - CORRECT ANSWER - separate interventions
are consistently paired with distinct stimulus conditions
Interval by Interval IOA - CORRECT ANSWER - # of intervals agreed / total # of
intervals x 100
Scored Interval IOA - CORRECT ANSWER - # of intervals yes / total # of intervals w/yes
x 100
Unscored Interval IOA - CORRECT ANSWER - # of intervals no / total # of intervals
w/no x 100
Purpose of Reversal Design - CORRECT ANSWER - To reverse a behavior by
implementing conditions along with interventions
Characteristics of Reversal Design - CORRECT ANSWER - considered an ABCB design
where AB are typical with withdrawal and C is the addition of some technical operation
Purpose of parametric analysis - CORRECT ANSWER - to determine how much of an
intervention is needed
characteristics of parametric analysis - CORRECT ANSWER - analysis of behavioral
levels with different amounts of intervention (good for educational standards)
, purpose of withdrawal design - CORRECT ANSWER - to demonstrate experimental
control through baseline logic
characteristics of withdrawal design - CORRECT ANSWER - ABAB design where A is
baseline and B is the intervention.
purpose of multi probe design - CORRECT ANSWER - to evaluate effects of instruction
on skill acquisition
characteristics of multi probe design - CORRECT ANSWER - variation of MB design that
features intermittent measures on probes during baseline
purpose of component analysis - CORRECT ANSWER - to determine which parts of an
intervention are most effective
characteristics of component analysis - CORRECT ANSWER - the removal and addition
of components to interventions in order to evaluate their effectiveness on behavior change
purpose of changing criterion design - CORRECT ANSWER - gradual achievements of
performance improvements
characteristics of changing criterion design - CORRECT ANSWER - gradual, planned
steps serve as constant replication
purpose of multiple baseline design - CORRECT ANSWER - to demonstrate
generalization among different conditions
characteristics of multiple baseline design - CORRECT ANSWER - staggered introduction
of the intervention. All BL begin at the same time.
total count IOA - CORRECT ANSWER - smaller count / larger count x 100
