- When using frequency recording, the data label on the y-axis will be (select all that apply):
A. Number of behaviors
B. Percent
C. Latency
D. Time
Percent occurrenceLinks to an external site.
- “Percentage” measures are (Select all that apply):
A. A ratio of different dimensional quantities
B. A proportion of correct to incorrect
C. A proportion of intervals in which the target behavior occurred
D. Acceptable to use if the behavior occurs 1-2 times a day
Step 3 Now, let’s practice. Let’s look at the measurement of the dependent variables section from five single subject research design studies and identify the measurement systems:
HERE IS AN EXAMPLE: ANALYZING THE MULTIPLE FUNCTIONS OF STEREOTYPICAL BEHAVIOR FOR STUDENTS WITH AUTISM: IMPLICATIONS FOR ASSESSMENT AND TREATMENTLinks to an external site.
Select the measurement system* used from the following:
