6225 Module 10 Guided Notes Exam 20 Questions with Verified Answers
"Measurement is how we operationalize _______________________________" (Cooper et al., 2007, p. 73). At the very foundation of our science, measurement legitimizes our practice so that we can toss around the phrase"_______________________________" with sincerity. It also alienates us from fads or pseudoscience, allowing us to uphold our ethical standards. - CORRECT ANSWER Empiricism
Evidence Based
Frequent and_______________________________measurement of behavior ensures that ineffective treatments are not continued and_______________________________treatments are continued. - CORRECT ANSWER Accurate
Effective
Because behavior occurs within and across time, it has three dimensional quantities:_______________________________, _______________________________, and_______________________________. - CORRECT ANSWER Repeatability
Temporal Extent
Temporal Locus
_______________________________ demonstrates that the response can be counted. - CORRECT ANSWER Repeatability
______________________________describes the duration of the response. - CORRECT ANSWER Temporal Extent
______________________________describes the duration between the response and some other stimulus in the environment. - CORRECT ANSWER Temporal Extent
Response latency falls under the _______________________________dimension of behavior measurement. - CORRECT ANSWER Temporal Locus
Frequency falls under the _______________________________ dimension of behavior measurement. - CORRECT ANSWER Repeatability
Duration falls under the _______________________________dimension of behavior measurement. - CORRECT ANSWER Temporal Extent
Inter response time (IRT) falls under the _______________________________dimension of behavior measurement. - CORRECT ANSWER Temporal Locus
. _______________________________is behavior that is built using discrete-trial methods, where a distinct antecedent stimulus is presented and only one response can be emitted (Pear, 2001). However, _______________________________is behavior that is not constrained by an antecedent and consequence stimuli for each response; rather, the behavior occurs repeatedly and often at a high frequency. - CORRECT ANSWER Restricted Operant Behavior
Free Operant Behavior
A specific advantage of using free-operant methods in teaching situations is the ability to evaluate_______________________________. Researchers and practitioners are unable to evaluate frequency using restricted operants; rather, behavior is typically evaluated according to a percent-correct measure. - CORRECT ANSWER Frequency
Frequencies of free-operant responding are best charted on the _______________________________. - CORRECT ANSWER Celeration Chart
Measuring behavior after it has occurred by measuring its effects on the environment is known as measurement by _______________________________. - CORRECT ANSWER Permanent Product
To be useful in science, measurement must be_______________________________,_______________________________, and _______________________________. - CORRECT ANSWER Valid
Reliable
Accurate
Behavioral measurement is considered to be _______________________________when the target behavior was measured directly, the dimension of the target behavior was relevant to the context of the behavior, and the data collected were representative of the behavior under conditions and during times that were most relevant. - CORRECT ANSWER Valid
Behavioral measurement is _______________________________ when observed values, the data produced by measuring an event match the true state or values of the event. - CORRECT ANSWER Accurate
Behavioral measurement is _______________________________ when it yields the same values across repeated measurement of the same event. - CORRECT ANSWER Reliable
______________________________is when there is unintended changes in the way an observer uses a measurement system over the course of an investigation. This can be minimized by consistent feedback and monitoring. - CORRECT ANSWER Observer Drift
If everyone reports the same measurement, but the measurement instrument is broken, we can say that the measurement procedure lacks _________________________, but demonstrated ________________________. - CORRECT ANSWER validity
reliable
