Every instance of behavior occurs during across some duration of time (i.e., the
behavior can be measured) is known as of which of the following? - answer Temporal
extent
Every instance of behavior occurs at a certain point in time with respect to other events
(i.e., when behavior occurs can be measured) is known of which of the following?
Temporal locus - answer Temporal locus
This term is used to describe when environmental variables are actively manipulated,
and the effect of those manipulations on the behavior of interest is measured. - answer
Independent variable
This term is used to describe what is measured when environmental variables are
actively manipulated. Dependent variable - answer Dependent variable
This term refers to when a change in the behavior of interest is due to the intervention
and no other variables. - answer Functional control
Defining behavior in observable terms is known as of which of the following? - answer
Operational definition
Within this type of measurement every instance of behavior is counted. Frequency -
answerFrequency
Which of the following is one disadvantage of frequency measurement? - answerTime
consuming
Scoring if a behavior occurred during any portion of an interval is known as which of the
following? - answerPartial interval recording
Partial interval recording - answeroverestimates most behavior, but underestimates high
frequency behavior.
Scoring if a behavior occurs at a specific moment in time is known as which of the
following? - answerMomentary time sampling
Momentary time sampling commonly - answeroverestimates and underestimates
behavior.
Scoring only if a behavior occurred during an entire interval is known as which of the
following? - answerWhole interval recording
