Replication
Critical features of a line graph include which of the following:
Vertical axis labeled with a quantitative measure
When constructing a line graph, a research assistant ensures that the vertical axis length has a 2:3
ratio to the horizontal axis. The research assistant chose to use this ratio to:
properly display data variability and limit distortion
A researcher is evaluating the use of a video modeling procedure. The researcher collects data
periodically for single sessions, and over a minimum of three days immediately prior to introduction
of the independent variable. Which design is the researcher likely using?
Multiple probe design
A researcher plans to use a parametric design. Which of the following question is best answered using
a parametric design?
Does one level of the independent variable result in increase/decrease in levels of behavior, when
compared to another level of that independent variable, for given participants
Dr. Floress is conducting a meta-analysis of the available single case research design studies, which
have evaluated procedures to train teachers to use praise. Dr. Floress has coded each article and
determined which to include. The next step of the meta-analysis should be
Extracting data
A good research question includes the following components:
The independent variable, the dependent variable, and the participants
A 3 year old girl with autism and intellectual disability was referred for treatment at an ABA clinic due
to concerns regarding elopement. Their mother brought them in for the first session and the BCBA
assessing them realized that they seem to elope when asked to do a task, when they don't get what
they wants, and when they are overly stimulated. After the functional behavior assessment, the BCBA
decides to use a multicomponent treatment package that consists of verbal instruction, DRO, and
blocking to treat reduce the child's elopement. The research question that best fits this scenario is:
Does a multicomponent treatment package that consists of verbal instruction, DRO, and blocking
affect elopement?
The degree to which behavior change occurs as soon as the intervention is introduced is referred to
as:
Immediacy of change
Split middle trend lines are most useful when:
A researcher is primarily interested in within condition trends
A researcher is primarily interested in between condition changes in trend Data show moderate or
high variability within conditions
, Which of the following is true regarding a withdrawal design:
Following implementation of the intervention, the treatment is withdrawn and there is a return to
baseline conditions.
Dr. Baranek is a consultant at an ABA clinic. They would like to compare the effect of a token economy
alone to a token economy with verbal feedback for increasing their client's compliance with adult
requests. Dr. Baranek collected baseline data on rate of compliance and plans to use a complex phase
change to evaluate the token economy alone or combined with verbal feedback. Which of the
following indicates the appropriate notation:
A/B/B+C/B/B+C
Which of the following is true regarding the A/B design:
The A/B design is also called a simple phase change design and is the most basic single case research
design. The A/B design provides a framework for repeated measurement. The A/B design measures
the dependent variable under baseline conditions and intervention and quickly assesses the effects of
an intervention.
The most commonly used single case research design in the empirical literature is the:
Multiple baseline design
Dr. Watson was referred a 7-year-old African American female who suffered a traumatic brain injury
and engaged in public masturbation. Dr. Watson evaluated the effects of response blocking with
guided compliance and reinforcement for a habilitative replacement behavior to decrease public
masturbation and increase on-task behavior. Seven months later, Dr. Watson was referred a similar
case. Dr. Watson selected a non-concurrent multiple baseline design as opposed to a concurrent
multiple baseline design. Their rationale for choosing this design was likely based on which of the
following:
The concurrent multiple baseline design poses a problem for researchers in applied settings because
clients with similar target behaviors may be referred at different points in time
A multiple baseline design shows the functionality of the intervention by demonstrating that the
intervention produces the same kind of behavior change:
Across a variety of behaviors of the same subject within a given setting
Across a variety of settings for the same behavior of a single subject Across a variety of subjects
displaying the same behavior in the same setting
Dr. Dieringer wants to evaluate the use of backward chaining to teach handwashing to an 8-year-old
Caucasian male with autism spectrum disorder. They develop a task analysis outlining each step of
hand washing. They take an initial baseline probe. An additional probe session is conducted for each
step in the training sequence immediately after the criterion is met for any step in the task analysis.
Prior to introducing the independent variable, they collect data for a series of true baseline sessions.
Which design is Dr. Dieringer likely using?
Multiple Probe
Compared to the A/B design, the multiple baseline design
Better controls for history
