Continuous Measurement
A count of how many times a specific behavior occurs within a defined observation period.
What is Frequency?
Three discontinuous measurements
What is
1.Partial interval Recording
2.Whole interval Recording
3.Momentary Time Sampling
Is this a observable & measurable? "The student was upset"
What is no?
What is the frequency count of the following example: The client hit the clinician five times.
What is 5?
Guess what client refuses to vacation anywhere besides Disney World
Who is LD?
The following definition is an example of what continuous measurement: A tantrum is defined as continuous engagement in one or more of the following behaviors: screaming, yelling, dropping to the floor, or throwing objects.
What is Duration?
Partial interval recording occurs at what point of the interval?
What is any time during each interval?
Is this observable & measurable? "The client screamed hit 24 times in a 35 minute span"
What is yes?
What is the duration of the following example: The client screamed from 11:15 to 11:30.
What is 15 minutes?
Who is most likely to eat 20 jello cups in one sitting (client wise)
Who is NV?
Definition of Latency
What is Latency is a measurement that records the amount of time between a given instruction or cue and the start of the target behavior.
Whole interval occurs at what point of the interval?
What is the entire interval?
Turn this example into Observable & Measurable: "He got upset"
What is "The client showed signs of being upset by crying with tears, stomping feet, and hitting three times" (any varation)
What is the latency of the following example: The client will orient towards name within 45 seconds of the SD.
What is 45 seconds?

Who is AW?
When given a verbal instruction (e.g., “Clean up”), the learner will begin the requested task within 5 seconds in 80% of opportunities. What is the latency?
What is 5 seconds?
Momentary time sampling occurs at what point of the interval?
What is the end of the interval?
What is accuracy and objectivity?
What is the percentage of correct responding for the following example: "The client correctly answer 4 WH questions out of 10 total trials.
What is 40%?
Guess what client got in trouble for sticking his toothbrush into another clients mouth during personal hygiene
Who is AA?
Definition of interresponse time?
What is Interresponse Time (IRT) is a measurement that records the amount of time between two consecutive occurrences of the same behavior?
Name one client we use discontinuous measurement for
Objectivity removes what?
What is personal interpretation, bias, and assumptions?
Name four different ways to calculate data
What is frequency, duration, latency, IRT, percentage of correct responding, and/or interval data?
