How does the multiple probe technique differ from the multiple baseline design?
a. The multiple probe does not require that data are continuously collected
throughout the length of baseline and intervention
b. The multiple probe requires changing the conditions for the target behavior
at multiple points
c. The multiple probe requires determining interim levels of performance
d. The multiple probe requires a minimum of three people observing behavior
for any given phase
[Ques. 2] Mrs. Kitteridge decides to record the number of times Harold raises his hand in the media room, regular education classroom, and art room. This is an example of which type of multiple baseline design?
a. across teachers
b. across students
c. across settings
d. across behaviors
[Ques. 3] An advantage of the multiple baseline design is that it ________.
a. provides a quick way for determining the effectiveness of an intervention
b. eliminates the use of a baseline phase
c. eliminates the necessity to collect behavioral observation prior to
implementing an intervention
d. provides a way to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention when a
reversal design is not desirable
[Ques. 4] A problem with the reversal design is that ________.
a. it is not ethical to reverse some target behaviors that are dangerous such as
aggression
b. criteria for the return to baseline phase has not been well established
c. some behaviors are not reversible nor dependent upon intervention once
they are acquired
d. both it is not ethical to reverse some target behaviors that are dangerous
such as aggression and some behaviors are not reversible nor dependent
upon intervention once they are acquired
e.
all of these choices
[Ques. 5] It is important to graph behavior because it enables you to interpret the results of an intervention.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
[Ques. 6] A reversal design should not be used for ________.
a. disruptive behavior
b. aggressive behavior
c. academic behavior
d. all of these choices
[Ques. 7] Interpreting the effects of intervention using an A-B design can be problematic because ________.
a. this design usually results in unstable (variable) baseline which cannot be
interpreted
b. it is impossible to rule out alternative explanations for behavior change
c. most behavior is too complicated to graph using this design
d. both this design usually results in unstable (variable) baseline which cannot
be interpreted and most behavior is too complicated to graph using this
design
e.
all of these choices
[Ques. 8] It is important to graph behavior because it provides a visual record of the student's behavior.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
[Ques. 9] Type of interobserver reliability calculated by dividing the number of agreements by the number of agreements and disagreements and multiplying by 100 is ________.
a. permanent products
b. duration recording
c. latency recording
d. frequency recording
e.
all of these choices
[Ques. 10] Selecting an appropriate method for calculating interobserver reliability will depend on the complexity of the target behavior being observed .
Indicate whether the statement is true or false
