Frequency/Rate
Which of the two (frequency or rate) provides more accurate data?
Rate
What does duration measure?
How long a behavior lasts.
What does latency measure?
Time between instruction and response.
What is being measured when taking IRT data?
Why is guessing time an issue when taking measurement data?
Data becomes inaccurate
What is the formula for finding the rate of a behavior?
Frequency รท Time
What types of behaviors are appropriate for duration?
Behaviors with a clear beginning and end
What type of behaviors are appropriate for latency measurement?
Behaviors that should have a faster or slower response rate
The client engaged in SIB at 3:05 then again at 3:30. What is the IRT?
Which system is best used for measuring delayed responses?
The client engages in 9 instances of biting within a 3-hour session? What is the rate of the behavior?
3 instances of biting per hour
When taking duration data, when should you stop recording?
At the offset or end of the behavior
When taking latency data, you should begin data collection?
After the instruction or SD has been delivered
While taking IRT data, two RBTs debate when to start the timer. When should timing begin?
At the END of the first behavior
Which measurement system is best used for inconsistent sessions lengths?
Rate
