11. Which of the following is a consequence intervention involving punishment?
Correct Answer : Taking away a token
12. Consequence interventions involve:
Correct Answer : Reinforcing desired behaviors and reducing the display of undesirable behavior
13. Why are prevention strategies a valuable part of behavior intervention plans?
, Correct Answer : They decrease the likelihood that an undesirable behavior will get reinforced

1. Which of the following data recording procedures is best used for behaviors that have a clear ending and
beginning, do not occur throughout an interval, but still occur at high rates?
Correct Answer : Partial interval
2. Why would the prompt level necessary to perform the skill be an important part of data collection?
Correct Answer : Skills performed with prompts are not mastered until they are performed without prompts
3. Which of the following is true about data collection?
It is the foundation for creating behavioral interventions.
4. The x axis on a graph is:
Correct Answer : Horizontal and is also called the abscissa
5. If data indicate that progress is not being made, which of the following questions could be asked?
Correct Answer : Is the skill program being delivered effectively?
6. Why is it important to record data as close to the time the behavior actually occurred as possible?
Correct Answer : So the data will be more likely to reflect an accurate picture of the behavior
7. A disadvantage of bar graphs is:
Correct Answer : The variability of data can be lost.
8. Which of the following is a discontinuous data recording procedure?
Correct Answer : Whole interval recording

Correct Answer : The learner is becoming prompt dependent.
11. Which of the following describes how probe data is collected?
Correct Answer : Collect data on the first 3 trials and if responding is independent, discontinue data collection.
12. Which of the following is a drawback of probe data?
Correct Answer : It is less accurate.
