Cumulative records - ANSWER✔✔-Data never decreases in a cumulative record; an increasing slope

indicates occurrence of the target behavior, while a flat slope indicates periods of no occurrences of the

target behavior


Momentary time sampling as a data collection method - ANSWER✔✔-Every 3 minutes, Sally counts the

number of students playing together vs. the number of students playing by themselves. At the end of a

30 minute observation period, Sally counts the percent of social engagement for all students by

averaging the score on each interval.


Discontinuos data collection - ANSWER✔✔-Data that is taken of some sample of the behavior, not each

and every instance of the behavior of interest.


Continuous data collection - ANSWER✔✔-Data that is taken on each and every instance of behavior.


Types of Discontinuous Data Collection - ANSWER✔✔-Momentary Time Sampling - .




Partial Interval Recording




Whole Interval Recording


Whole Interval Recording - ANSWER✔✔-Whole Interval Recording - recording data (YES or NO) if the

behavior occurs for the ENTIRETY of an observation interval. For example, if the behavior occurs for 59

seconds out of a 60 second observation interval, you would not score that interval! That seems pretty

arbitrary, but it has it's benefits - imagine a scenario where you are attempting to take data on many

learners who are supposed to be working on independent work. These same learners must raise their

hand if they'd like to get up from their table work. You could easily task a single teacher with taking WIR

data on 5 or even 10 kids, and if you're interested in seeing an increase in their in-seat, on-task behavior,

this would be a conservative measure of those behaviors -- a graph with a score of 100% would truly

represent mastery, as even a single second of out-of-seat behavior would cost them an entire interval's

score!


Partial Interval Recording - ANSWER✔✔-recording data (YES or NO) if the behavior occurs for any part of

a given interval. For example, if the behavior occurs for 1 second or for the entire interval, you would still

score it as a single "yes" for that interval. As a result, this type of recording tends to over-estimate

behavior, which may be a good thing, depending on what you're trying to measure. For example, if

you're teaching someone not to bite their teachers, even 1 second of biting could be pretty painful and

disruptive. Therefore, you'd be happy with overestimation as it would help guide treatment decisions in

the right direction.


Momentary Time Sampling - - ANSWER✔✔-recording data (YES or NO) regarding the occurrence of a

behavior at a specific moment in time. This means that if the behavior was occurring for the entirety of

the interval, but just happened to briefly stop at the point in time in which we observe the behavior, we

might still mark 'no.' This is one of the obvious drawbacks of this data collection scheme. One of the up-

sides is that it's relatively resource unintensive - a single data collector could easily take data on many

individuals simultaneously without becoming too overloaded.


Tommy walks up to Sally and says "Hey, do you know the time?" and Sally responds, "It is 3 o'clock!"
