Definition
| high quality data used to graph baseline (examples: attendance and quiz grades) |
|

Term
|
Definition
| Used when you draw upon a person's memory for big events (examples: fire setting, enuresis, severe tantrums) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| occurs when conditions are not held constant, but baseline is collected under the existing conditions with key variables being measured. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| conditions are held constant during the collection of baseline, which eliminates variables that change in natural settings. |

|
Definition
| An A-B design is the cornerstone of accountability; with this design you may be able to make internal validity arguments across replications. |
|
|
Term
| True single case experimental design |
|
Definition
| An A-B-A-B design is the first true single case design. This design includes a reversal (intervention withdrawal) and a replication phase. |
|

Term
| Research question for ABAB |
|
Definition
| Does the intervention work/is it effective at changing behavior in the desired direction? |
|
|
Term
| Research question for MBL |
|
Definition
| Will the intervention be effective across different subjects, behaviors and/or settings? |
|
|
Term
| Research question for Changing Criterion Design |
|
Definition
| Is the intervention effective at increasing/decresing the tareget behavior at varying levels of reinforcement? (each successful criterion shift is a replication) |
|
|
Term
| Rules for changing conditions |
|
Definition
Steady state logic: where you wait for a stable pattern of responding
Fixed and predetermined: certain set number of data points
Response-guided: make decisions as data is collected |

Definition
An A or B design.
An A design may be appropriate for a case study in that it monitors the course of a disorder, and/or the client may decline intervention. Either way, the A design can be used to stay involved and monitor the behavior. B designs can be used for accountability, natural interventions. |

| How to do maintenance check |
|
Definition
| Following the intervention, in the absence of treatment, follow-up probes can be done in a number of ways to measure maintenance. May be useful in determining what contiuing supports are needed. |
|
|
Term
| How to do generalization check |
|
Definition
| Need to use ongoing, concurrent measurement with follow up probes of targeted and non targeted responses and conditions. |
