(round to
the nearest whole number):
Week 1: 22, 31, 20, 32, 32
Week 2: 7, 8, 13, 31, 17
Week 3: 16, 5, 9, 12, 15

,Dr. Jones wanted to know if the use of the Good Behavior Game
decreased rates of disruptive behaviors in an elementary school.
Dr. Jones collected data throughout the duration of the school
year across two elementary schools. In school A, all k-6
classrooms used the Good Behavior Game. In School B, no
classrooms used the Good Behavior Game. At the end of the
school year,
Dr. Jones concluded that the Good Behavior Game had no impact
on student disruptive behavior, when in fact it had. This is an
example of:
A Type 2 error
The promary purpose of the method section is to
Both A and B are correct
-Detail the plan of study being proposed
-Provide a sufficiently detailed description of the study so so a
trained researcher can implement the study as intended with no
additional guidance
Which of the following is true about sing-case research design
The participant serves and his or her own control
,Inter-subject replication with an A/B/A/B design
These graphs represent which of the following
A change in trend
These data show which of the following
Which of the following is a limitation of using statistical
significance to differentiate between meaningful and trivial
change
All of the above are true
Which of the following is a limitation of group design
All of the above are possible limitations to group design
, Dr. Lestremau is employed in a large urban school district with 10
elementary schools. They want to evaluate the effects and
feasibility of peer-mediated, school-based, discrete trial
training for teaching
multiplication skills to six students with autism spectrum
disorder. They will collect on-going and frequent measurement
of students' fluency with multiplication facts. Dr. Lestremau is
using
Single case research design methodology
Kacyn is a BCBA at an ABA Center. They are running a small social
skills group with 6 children who have autism spectrum disorder.
Kacyn is
using the "Tough Kids Social Skills Curriculum." The goal of the
social skills sessions is to build basic social entry skills (e.g.,
making eye
contact, greetings, responding to name). Prior to the start of the
group,
Kacyn collected data for each of
the participants. Specifically, they asked the therapists to
complete the BASC-2 (a rating scale that measures changes in
behavior and emotional status) and also collected the
frequency of spontaneous greetings
during a 30-minute observation period. They continued to
collect data for spontaneous greetings during and after
implementation of the social skills group. What is the
dependent variable
The frequency of spontaneous greetings
