Exam Questions and Verified Answers |
Already Graded A+
measurement - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The process of applying quantitative labels
to describe and differentiate objects and natural events
repeatability - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔instances of a behavior can occur repeatedly
through time
temporal extent - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔every instance of behavior occurs during
some amount of time
temporal locus - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔every instance of behavior occurs at a
certain point in time with respect to other events
,count - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔A simple tally of the number of occurrences of a
behavior. The observation period, or counting time, should always be noted
when reporting count measures.
rate - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔the number of responses per unit of time
ex) count per seconds, count per minute, count per hour, count per day
free operant - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔can be emitted at nearly any time; is discrete,
it requires minimal time for completion, and it can produce a wide range of
response rates
discrete trial - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Response rates of behaviors occurring within
a controlled opportunity to emit the response.
celeration - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔a measure of how rates of response change
over time
-should use acceleration and deceleration when describing increasing or
decreasing rates of response
-celeration is a measure of count per unit time/per unit of time
-celeration is a direct measure of dynamic patters of behavior change
,duration - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔the amount of time from the onset to the end of a
response, is the basic measure of temporal extent
-Important when measuring the amount of time a person engages in target
bx
total duration per session - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔a measure of the cumulative
time a person engages in the target bx
-cummalative amount of time target bx during observation
-amount of time a person spend completing task
duration per occurence - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔a measure of the duration of time
that each instance of the target behavior occurs
latency - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔measure of the elapsed time between the onset of
a stimulus and the initiation of a subsequent response
interresponse time - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Amount of time that elapses between
two consecutive instances of a response class
-shorter irts coexist with higher rates of response
-longer irts occur within lower response rates

, -meaure IRT when the time between instances of response class is
important
-provides a basic measure for implementing and evaluating interventions
using differential rx of low and high rates
-displayed in graph by mean or median and range per observation period
derivative measures - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Percentage
Trials-to-Criterion
percentage - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔a ratio formed by combining the same
dimensional quantities such as count or time
-number of times the event occurred per 100 opportunities
-used to report response accuracy, proportion of observation intervals
target bx occurred
-limations: small divisor are unduly affected by small changes in bx, no
dimensional quantities, lower and upper limits on data
trials to criterion - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Measure of the number of response
opportunities needed to achieve a predetermined level of performance
-aspect of cost of treatment to compare treatment
