1) Miss Curry decides to decrease Rico's use of inappropriate language by requiring him to lose a behavior point for every inappropriate word he uses each day. Once implemented, she again gathers data on the number of times he uses inappropriate language in her class. This data condition is known as: 

Explanation

The correct answer is "intervention". In this scenario, Miss Curry implemented a strategy (requiring Rico to lose a behavior point) to decrease his use of inappropriate language. This strategy is considered an intervention because it is a deliberate action taken to change or modify Rico's behavior. The data gathered after implementing the intervention is used to evaluate its effectiveness in reducing Rico's inappropriate language use.

3) When you graph the number of occurences of a behavior in a given session after adding if to the number of occurences of a prior session you are employing a:

Explanation

The correct answer is a cumulative graph. A cumulative graph is used to show the total number of occurrences of a behavior over multiple sessions. It adds the number of occurrences in each session to the total from the previous session, resulting in a cumulative total. This type of graph is useful for tracking the progression or accumulation of a behavior over time.

4) Miss curry records some initial data (without interceding) on the number of times Rico uses inappropriate language in her class. This data condition is known as:

Explanation

Baseline refers to the initial data or measurement taken before any intervention or treatment is applied. In this context, Miss Curry is recording the number of times Rico uses inappropriate language in her class without making any changes or interventions. This initial data serves as a reference point to compare and evaluate the effectiveness of any future interventions or treatments.

5) When reporting percent on the ordinate scale:

Explanation

The correct answer is that the scale always goes from 0-100%. This means that when reporting percent on the ordinate scale, the scale will start at 0% and end at 100%. This ensures that the entire range of percentages can be accurately represented on the scale.

Submit
6) A continuity break could be present on a graph for any of the following EXCEPT:

Explanation

A continuity break refers to a disruption or interruption in the flow of data or information on a graph. This could be caused by various factors such as technical issues, missing data, or changes in the variables being measured. In this case, the correct answer is "student was not responding well during the instructional session." This is because a student's lack of response or engagement during a session would not directly cause a continuity break on a graph. The other options, such as the student being sick, winter break, or the teacher having a meeting, could potentially cause disruptions in the data and result in a continuity break on the graph.

Submit
7) A scale break indicates:

Explanation

A scale break indicates that the ordinate scale is not continuous. This means that there is a gap or break in the scale, usually represented by a zigzag or wavy line, to indicate that there is a significant jump or discontinuity in the data being plotted on the graph. This break is used to avoid distorting the visual representation of the data and to clearly show that there is a gap in the scale.
