ACES Knowledge Check Study Questions
with Correct Answers 100% Pass
Continuous Measurement - CORRECT ANSWER -
Recording data on all instances of specified behavior, such as through frequency, duration, laten
cy, and inter-response time.
Frequency - CORRECT ANSWER -
Counting each instance of behavior (How many time the behavior occurs)
Duration - CORRECT ANSWER -
Timing the behavior from onset to offset (How long a duration lasts)
Latency - CORRECT ANSWER -timing from SD (cue) to SR (response)
Inter-response time (IRT) - CORRECT ANSWER -
The measure of elapsed time between successive responses
Ex. - Bob clapped once, then clapped again 2 seconds later
Discontinuous Measurement - CORRECT ANSWER -
Recording data on some instances of behavior, such as through whole-interval, partial-
interval, and momentary time sampling.
Partial Interval Recording - CORRECT ANSWER -
Yes or no data. If behavior occurred at any point during the interval.
Whole Interval Recording - CORRECT ANSWER -
Yes or no data. If behavior occurred during the entire length of the interval.
, Momentary Time Sampling - CORRECT ANSWER -
a measurement method in which the presence or absence of behaviors are recorded at precisel
y specified time intervals (exp: for the last time frame of the interval)
Percent occurrence - CORRECT ANSWER -Calculated by :
(the number of target responses) divided by (the total number of opportunities to respond) mul
tiplied by 100
Discrete Categorization/Coding - CORRECT ANSWER -Sorting data into categories or codes
Trial to criterion - CORRECT ANSWER -
number of trial conducted for client to go from baseline to mastered
Permanent-product recording - CORRECT ANSWER -
Recording the outcome of a behavior instead of the behavior itself (presence of physical evidenc
e since behavior was not observed)
Graph - CORRECT ANSWER -
Visual representation of data. Can illustrate a positive or negative trend.
Positive trend - CORRECT ANSWER -Increasing trend = observed behavior increasing
Negative trend - CORRECT ANSWER -decreasing trend = observed behavior decreasing
Behavior - CORRECT ANSWER -
any living organisms actions or physical functions that are observable and measurable
Envrionment - CORRECT ANSWER -Context in which the behavior occurs
