27. The graph below displays “percent/rate correct” on the y-axis and “successive days” on the x-axis.  The first phase is labeled “Baseline” and the second phase is labeled “Test Accommodation”.  The tiers are labeled “Subject/Setting/Behavior ONE”, “Subject/Setting/Behavior TWO”, and “Subject/Setting/Behavior THREE”.  In this design, which of the following is true?

 

 

a. Verification of prediction for behavior 1 and behavior 2 is depicted in tier 3

b. Replication of experimental effect for behavior 3 is depicted in tier 2

c. Prediction for behavior 3 occurred in tiers I and 2

d. Replication of experimental effect for behavior 2 is depicted in tiers 1 and 3 

 

28. Sean is reviewing data concerning an intervention targeting his client’s calling-out behavior during class. Repeated measurement reveals significant variability. As a result of this, what should Sean do?

 

a. cease the intervention until issues resolve

b. continue observation until steady state responding is achieved

c. retrain classroom staff who is observing

d. seek to identify and control factors responsible

 

29. The systematic covariation between two events can be used to predict the probability that one event will occur based on the presence of the other event. This is known as?

 

a. stable responding

b. baseline logic

c. a correlation

d. experimental control

 

30. Taking a sample of participants, exposing them to different conditions and obtaining different groups of scores from each group is an indication of which of the following designs?

 

a. quasi design

b. none of these responses are correct

c. between group design

d. single case design

 

31. 

Which of the following is a rationale for using a reversal design?

 

a. it’s a strong indicator of the existence of a functional relation

b. it is resistant to irreversability of behavior change

c. it’s simple, easy, and doesn’t require any special training to implement

d. it is appropriate for serious, dangerous problem behaviors

 

32. Sophie is planning to implement a new intervention with one of her adult clients which will address his behavior of repetitive cursing. The community is experiencing heat wave conditions and Sophie struggles to maintain a consistent comfortable temperature prior to initiating the intervention. What do Sophie’s efforts likely indicate she is acting in consideration of?

 

a. an extraneous variable

b. a confounding variable

c. face validity

d. external validity

 

33. Which of the following occurs to demonstrate external validity?

 

a. change in the dependent variable is the result of the intervention

b. experimental effects are replicated across settings or people

c. high degree of internal validity is present

d. study provides at least four demonstrations of experimental effect at four different points

 

34. Partial interval recording will typically ________ estimate the occurrence of a behavior, and whole interval recording may likely _________ estimate the occurrence of a behavior.

 

a. under-over

b. both

c. neither

d. over-under

 

35. It is common for a behavioral practitioner to arrange for periodic observations by an independent observer to assess the degree to which the same observed values are recorded after measuring the same events. This process is known as?

 

a. experimental reliability

b. confident observation checks

c. observer generalization

d. interobserver agreement
