Graphs and Behavior Analysis Quiz

_____________ are relatively simple formats for visually displaying relationships among and between a series of measurements and relevant variables.

• Lists

• Tables

• Number groupings

• Graphs

The three fundamental properties of behavior illustrated on a graph include:

• Level, trend, variability

• Movement, on-going, continual

• Line, bar, cumulative

• Series, numerical, data

The __________ graph is the most common graphic format for displaying data in applied behavior analysis.

• Bar

• Cumulative record

• Line

• Scatterplot

Bar graphs sacrifice the presentation of the __________ and __________ in behavior.

• Level, number

• Variability, trends

• Data, time

• Peak, valley

On a cumulative record the steeper the slope, __________ the response rate.

Logarithmic scales are well suited to display and communicate ______________________ change.

• Sequential

• Simple

• Proportional

• Traditional

This type of graph provides a standardized means of charting and analyzing how the frequency of behavior changes over time.

• Celeration graph

• Bar graph

• Scatterplot

Precision teaching focuses on ________________ rather than the specific frequency of correct and incorrect responses.

• Time

• Celeration

• Rate

• Speed

Behavior analysts typically use ________________ __________________ to interpret graphically displayed data.

• Statistical analysis

• Numerical analysis

• Visual analysis

• Graphic analysis

The value on the vertical axis scale around which a set of behavior measures converge is called ______________.

• Trend

• Rate

• Variability

• Level
