Exam 3: Graphing Behavior and Measuring Change

A data point on a graph tells you:

In behavior modification, a research design involves:

Which of the following is NOT characteristic of an A-B design?

Each data point on a graph shows you the level of the behavior at a particular point in time.

The horizontal axis in a graph is used to record:

What should be taken into account before using an A-B-A-B design?

An A-B design does not demonstrate a functional relationship between the treatment and the target behavior because there is no:

On a graph in behavior modification, the _____ axis shows the level of the behavior.

In a(n) __________________ research design, there is a baseline phase followed by a treatment phase and then another baseline and treatment phase.

When you demonstrate that a behavior modification procedure caused a behavior to change, you are demonstrating a functional relationship.

In a multiple baseline across behaviors design, treatment is first implemented for one behavior of the subject and is then implemented later for a second behavior of the same subject.

A ________ is a visual representation of the occurrence of a behavior over time.

In behavior modification, the main way to document behavior change is through the use of a(n):

Data points should be connected across phase lines.

In behavior modification, a research design is used to:

In an A-B design, A= _________ and B= __________.

In a multiple baseline across behaviors design, there is a baseline and treatment phase for __________ behavior(s) of __________ subject(s).

The research design in which there are increasing (or decreasing) goal levels for the target behavior is referred to as a(n) ____________ design.

Which research design is referred to as a reversal design?

A-B designs are frequently used in behavior modification research.
