pendently of a BCBA
3. rate the total count per a unit of time
4. duration the time from when the behavior begins to
when it ends.

and the occurrence of a behavior

7. calculate frequency/rate per hour and 60 per hour, 1 per minute
minute for a behavior that occurred 120
times over a 2 hour observation
8. partial-interval recording When the behavior must occur at least once
during the interval to be recorded
9. Whole-interval recording when the behavior must occur for the entire
interval to be recorded.
10. Momentary time sampling when the behavior must be occurring at the

12. which recording method would you ex- whole-interval recording
pect to use when a target behavior is set
to increase?
13. Which recording method would you ex- Partial-interval recording
pect to use when a target behavior is set
to decrease?
14. true or false? Partial interval recording False
has the tendency to under-estimate the
frequency of a target behavior while
whole interval recording has the ten-
dency to over-estimate the frequency of
the target behavior?
15. Which of the following are examples of Number of broken windows and folded shirts
"permanent products" that can be used
to collect data using permanent product
recording procedures.
16. True/False: permanent product record- True
ing is one of the lease cumbersome data
recording methods
17. operational definition for a tantrum Any instance of the client crying and hitting
himself in the head with a closed fist which
makes a sound that can be heard within five
feet. Instance must last longer than 30 seconds
and are separated by 30 seconds of non-occur-
rence.
18. behavior The activity of living organisms; human behav-
ior includes everything that people do.

19. environment the conglomerate of real circumstances in
which the organism or references part of the
organism exists; behavior cannot occur in the
absence of environment.
20. 4 functions of behavior Social positive (attention/access), Social neg-
ative (escaping), Automatic Positive (sensory
stimulation), Automatic Negative (pain attenu-
ation)
21. A client gets out of his seat every time a Social negative (escape)
demand is placed. When he gets out of
his seat his teacher says, "Oh you need
a break", and does not follow through
with her demand. This client's out of
seat behavior most likely serves what
function?
22. A client frequently spits. You notice that Automatic negative (pain attenuation)
he spits during work times, when he is
on a break, when he is playing with his
favorite toys, during meal times, when
you or someone else is directly engaged
with him, and even when he is by him-
self. One day mom brings the client back
from the dentist where he had to get 6
cavities filled. After this dentist appoint-
ment the spitting stopped. What func-
tion does spitting most likely serve?
23. Every time his mother removes items Social Positive (attention/access)
from him, a client engages in a tantrum.
