Baseline
|
the condition or phase in which no treatment is implemented
|
|
Behavioral assessment
|
measurement of the target behavior (or behaviors) in behavior modification May also refer to measurement of antecedents and consequences of the target behavior
|
|
Continuous recording
|
a type of recording procedure in which some aspect of the behavior is recorded each time the behavior occurs. Frequency, duration, latency, or intensity can be recorded in a continuous recording procedure
|
|
Contrived Setting
|
an observation setting that is not part of the client’s normal daily routine
|
|
Duration
|
the time from the onset of the behavior, to the offset of the behavior Duration is how long an instance of the behavior lasts
|
|
Direct Assessment
|
behavioral assessment involving direct observation and recording of the behavior as it occurs. This may also refer to direct observation and recording of the antecedents and consequences of the behavior
|
|
Frequency-within-interval recording
|
a recording method in which the number of times the target behavior occurs (frequency) is recorded within consecutive intervals of time during the observation period
|
|
Frequency
|
the number of times a behavior occurs in a specific time period. The number of responses (frequency) divided by the time equals the rate of the behavior
|
|
Indirect assessment
|
assessment that relies on information from others the information on the problem behavior antecedents and consequences is not derived from direct observation but from retrospective report in interviews and questionnaires.
|
|
Intensity
|
the physical force or magnitude of the behavior often measured with a recording instrument or on a rating scale
|
|
Interobserver reliability
|
occurs when two observers independently observe and record a person’s behavior at the same time and agree on the occurrence of the behavior
|
|
Interval recording
|
a type of behavior recording procedure in which the observation period is divided into a number of consecutive time intervals and the behavior is recorded as occurring or not occurring in each of the intervals
|
|
Latency
|
the time from some stimulus to the onset of the behavior
|
|
Natural setting
|
an observation setting that is part of the client’s normal daily routine the target behavior typically occurs in the natural setting
