Measurable Dimensions
Count is a measure based on this measurable dimensional quality
Repeatability
This fundamental measure is the number of responses emitted.
Count
Lenny played on the swings for 15 minutes of recess.
Duration
When the observation period is divided into a series of brief time intervals and at the end of each interval the observer records whether the behavior occurred THROUGHOUT the interval, this is called...
Whole Interval Recording
Duration is a measure based on this measurable dimensional quality
Temporal Extent
This fundamental measure is the amount of time from the onset to the end point of a response.
Duration
Elijah raised his hands 5 times during class.
Count
When an observer records whether a target behavior occurred AT THE MOMENT the time interval ends, this is called....
Momentary Time Sampling
Latency is a measure based on this measurable dimensional quality
Temporal Locus
A ratio of count per observation time; often expressed as count per standard unit of time (e.g., per minute, per hour, per day) is known as this type of measurement.
Rate
Marisol's mands were counted during a 30min time frame, She manded 15 times in the 30 min time frame. We can report that she manded at a _____ of .5 times per minute.
Rate
When the observer records whether the behavior occurred AT ANY TIME during the interval this is called....
Partial Interval Recording
Temporal Locus
This fundamental measure is of the amount of time that elapses between two consecutive instances of a response class
Interresponse Time (IRT)
Daniella was presented with 10 math problems. She got 4 of them correct. We can report her correct responding using this type of derived measurement.
Percentage
Because behavior is scored if it occurs during any duration of the interval, this measurement type often over estimates the overall percentage of the observation period that the behavior occurred.
Partial Interval Recording
Celeration is a measure based on this measurable dimensional quality
Repeatability
This fundamental measure is of the change in rate of responding over time
Celeration
Mohammed answered social questions directed at him an average of 10 seconds after the peer asked the question. This is reflective of this fundamental measure.
Latency
Longer observation intervals in whole interval recording lead to a greater likelihood of this occurring.
Underestimating the actual occurrence of the behavior
