Answer Stats
Hint Answer % Correct
The number of times the behaviour occurs in an observation period Frequency
100%
When two people independently observe the same behaviour and both record that the behaviour occurred Interobserver agreement (IOA)
100%
The time from some stimulus or event to the onset of the behaviour Latency
100%
Observing a target behaviour in a physician’s waiting room Analogue setting
0%
The period during which the target behaviour is recorded before treatment is implemented Baseline
0%
Measurement of the target behaviour (or behaviours) in behaviour modification Behavioural Assessment
0%
Includes action verbs describing specific behaviours that a person exhibits; is objective and unambiguous Behavioural Definition
0%
The observer observes the client continuously throughout the observation period and records each occurrence of behaviour Continuous recording
0%
Person observes and records target behaviour as it occurs Direct assessment
0%
The total amount of time occupied by the behaviour from start to finish Duration
0%
Observer records the frequency of the target behaviour but does so within consecutive intervals of time in the observation period Frequency-within-interval recording
0%
Purpose Function
0%
Involves using interviews, questionnaires, and rating scales to obtain information on the target behaviour from the person exhibiting the behaviour or from others Indirect Assessment
0%
The amount of force, energy, or exertion involved in the behaviour Intensity
0%
Along with interrater reliability, another term for an IOA
Interval recording - a method for recording behaviour in which you record whether the behaviour occurred during consecutive time periods or intervals
Interobserver reliability
0%
The behaviour is recorded only if it occurs at the exact instant the interval ends Momentary time sample recording (MTS)
0%
Consists of the places in which the target behaviour typically occurs Natural setting
0%
The specific period during which the observer records the target behaviour Observation period
0%
The observer scores the interval as an occurrence if the behaviour occurred during any part of the interval Partial-interval recording
0%
Percentage of trials or percentage correct Percentage of opportunities
0%
An indirect assessment method that can be used when a behaviour results in a certain tangible outcome that you are interested in. Also called permanent product recording Product recording
0%
Frequency divided by the time of the observation period Rate
0%
When the process of recording the behaviour causes the behaviour to change, even before any treatment is implemented Reactivity
0%
The exact time of each onset and offset of the target behaviour is recorded Real-time recording
0%
The client observes and records their own behaviour Self-monitoring
0%
The observer arranges for specific events or activities to occur during the observation period Structured observation
0%
Divide the observation period into intervals of time but observe and record the behaviour during only part of each interval Time sample recording
0%
No specific events or activities are arranged and no instructions are given during the observation period Unstructured observation
0%
The occurrence of the behaviour is marked in an interval only when the behaviour occurs throughout the entire interval Whole-interval recording
