Propositions that make predictions and are used to guide evaluation-informed practice and research activities.

What are hypotheses

200

A measure that involves the administration of the same scale items to different people using the same administration and scoring procedures.

What is a standardized scale

200
The design encourages practitioners to _____ the case as objectively as possible and to _____changes in the client targets and/or situation over time.

What are Assess and Monitor

The process of assigning labels to certain characteristics of things according to a set of rules.

What is a measurement

300

The standardized scales that are relatively brief; can be administered, scored, and interpreted without much time and effort; and can be used by professionals without extensive training in their use.

What are Rapid Assessment Instruments

300

The purpose of a single-system design is to ______ whether changes actually have occurred in targeted events.

What is Evaluate

300

The existence of a baseline allows for the establishment of a relationship between _____ and ______.

What is the Intervention and the Outcome

300

The "No-intervention baseline phase" and the "No-intervention withdrawal phase" are represented by this letter in the design.

What is the letter A
