Set of empirical procedures used to observe changes in an identified target that is measured repeatedly over time.
What is Single System Design
100
Categories
What is Nominal?
100
what the client would like to do or prefer after the intervention
What is an ultimate goal?
100
When the subject does not know they are being studied.
What is a Covert observation?
200
The part of good practice that informs the practitioner about how well the intervention is proceeding relative to the original objective.
What is evaluation?
200
The design can be used with just about any intervention theory or approach.
What is "theory independent?"
200
Categories in a certain order
What is Ordinal
200
Very specific versions of the ultimate goal explaining who will do what under what conditions.
What is an intermediate goal or objective?
200
When the subject is aware or suspects they are being observed.
What is an Overt observation?
300
Research in which experimental groups are compared with control groups in labs or field settings.
What is Classical research?
300
Assigns meaning to a variable in terms of the operations necessary to measure it in any concrete situation, when applied to data collection, is a clear, concise detailed definition of a measure.
What is an operational definition?
300
Equal Intervals
What is Interval?
300
The ability to develop, implement, and flexibly maintain planned behavior in order to achieve one's goals.
What is self regulation?
300
Keeping a count each time a specific behavior occurs.
What is Event Sampling?
400
EBP
What is Evidenced Based Practice?
400
The "dictionary" meaning of a word, an abstract concept that defines a term in an academic discipline
What is Conceptual definition?
400
Equal intervals and 0 point
What is a scale?
400
Specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time sensitive.
What are SMART Objectives?
400
When observations are only recorded at specific time intervals.
What is Time Sampling?
500
The sum of systematic planned interventions chosen to deal with a particular set of targets to achieve identified objectives and goals.
What is a Practice Design?
500
The before-intervention state.
What is baseline?
500
Validity, reliability, measurement error, utility and directness.
What is the key characteristics of all measures?
500
The specific object of intervention that is relevant in a given situation.
What is the target?
500
When we are observing behavior under conditions which are controlled by the researcher, such as in a lab.
