Applying the ABCs Data Collection Data Collection x2 Data Collection x3 Discrete Trial Training
100
differential reinforcement
when only specific responses are reinforced according to specific criteria
100
Frequency, latency
-count of behavior per observation time
-measures of elapsed time from SD to response
100
Data path
the level and trend of behavior between data points, created by drawing a straight line between data points
100
Duration
What is the total amount of time a behavior occurs?
100
maintenance
extent to which a learner continues to demonstrate a behavior after instruction ends
200
motivating operations
environmental condition that temporarily changes the value of a reinforcer
200
operational definition
description of a behavior using observable, measurable, and specific terms
200
graph
What is a visual format for representing data?
200
ABC Data
recording of the antecedent, behavior, and consequence observed
200
discrete trial
systematic method of instruction that creates stimulus control over a response
300
Abolishing Operation
decreases the value of a particular stimulus
300
Product
a tangible record of a behavior
300
intensity
What is the magnitude or force of a behavior
300
inter-response time
elapsed time between 2 responses
300
generalization
ability of learner to demonstrate a behavior under different conditions then those they first learned
400
Establishing operation
increases the value of a particular stimulus
400
interval
period of time for observing behavior
400
rate
What is the count of a behavior per observation time?
400
indirect data collection
data collected through interviews, surveys, or other means when the behavior is not occurring
400
embedded trials, inter-trial interval, mass trials
-nonconsequative and infrequent opportunities to practice a specific response
-the length of time between trials
-frequent and consequence opportunities to practice a specific response
500
Discriminative stimulus
the stimulus that cues a learner to know that a specific behavior will be reinforced
500
whole interval, partial interval, momentary time sampling
time sampling method for measuring behavior, recording if target behaviors occur during the entire interval, at any given moment in the interval and if target behaviors occur at precisely specified times
500
data
What is the measurement of a quantifiable dimension of behavior?
500
direct data collection
data collected through observation of a learner engaging in behavior
500
match-to-sample
trial that requires the learner to match the antecedent stimulus
