"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_______________________________.
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 _______________________________.
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
