BEHV 5600 Module 2 Questions With Complete Solutions
4 major methods of of obtaining assessment information
Correct Answer
4 stage ABA continuum Correct Answer 1. assessment
2. planning
3. implementation
4. evaluation
5 phases of behavior assessment Correct Answer
ABC recording Correct Answer attempts to record all
behavior as it occurs
accuracy Correct Answer extent to which observed value
(quantity produced by measuring event) match the true value of
the event
if bx occurs 100x/min but analyst is not able to count it with
current recording measure (count vs duration) then data is
inaccurate
anecdotal recording Correct Answer ABC recording
assessment methods Correct Answer indirect and direct
behavior assessment Correct Answer indirect and direct
procedures to identify and define behaviors of interest, methods
to identify target behavior
, behavior measurement Correct Answer answer questions
about existence and nature of functional relations between bx
and environment
make comparisons of bx within and between environmental
conditions
draw empirically based conclusions about effects of conditions
on bx
count Correct Answer simple tally of number of occurrences
of bx, may not provide enough info to allow behavior analyst to
make useful program decisions or analysis, observation period
/counting time should always be noted
define target behavior: clear Correct Answer should be
readable and unambiguous, no feelings or bias
define target behavior: complete Correct Answer describe
precisely the "boundaries" of what is to be INcluded as an
instance of behavior and what is to be EXcluded
ex. head tap stim vs head hit SIB
define target behavior: objective Correct Answer referring
only to observable characteristics (and environment)
defining target behavior Correct Answer clear, objective,
concise
functional and consider topographical implications of definition
