Domain C - Understanding Control in Behavioral Measurement

Front

What is control in behavioral measurement?

Back

A measurement that directly summarizes the number of occurrences of a given response/behavior.

Front

Rate is

Back

A measurement that directly summarized the number of occurrences of a given response/behavior.

Front

Celeration is

Back

A measure of the change (i.e. increase or decrease ) in the rate of a behavior over a period of time.

Front

Percentage is

Back

A derived measure of behavior that depicts the proportional quantity of the number of times a behavior occurred out of the total number of opportnities for that behavior to occur.

Front

Topography is

Back

Measurement that describes a behavior's physical form and shape

Front

Magnitude is

Back

The measurement dimension of a behavior's strength, force, intensity, and/or severity.

Front

Temporal extent is

Back

A measure of the duration of time that a beahvior occurs from onset (i.e. start) to offset (i.e. end).

Front

Duration is

Back

A measurement that records the length of time that a behavior occurs from onset (i.e. start) to offset (i.e. end)

Front

Temporal locus refers to

Back

The point in time that a behavior occurs (i.e. response latency and interresponse time)

Front

Response Latency is

Back

The duration of time between the onset of a stimulus and the iniation of a response.
