3. Rationale for Collecting Data Measurement Dimensions of Behavior Anecdotal Reports and Permanent Product Recording Observational Recording Systems Duration and Latency Recording Interobserver Reliability Factors That Affect Data Collection and Interobserver Agreement Alberto & Troutman Applied Behavior Analysis for Teachers, 7e Copyright ©2006 by Pearson Education, Inc.

4. Rationale Required to document progress Provides a basis to evaluate student & teacher performance Provides for accountability Good behavioral objective (Step 4 IEP & Lesson Plan) allows you to select HOW to assess & depict the data you collect (Step 4 IEP) May not be realistic in every situation on every behavioral objective (Step 4 IEP)

5. Types of Data Examine written records Examine tangible (permanent) products Directly observe student behavior Frequency, rate, duration, latency, topography, force, & locus (where behavior occurs)

6. Guidelines for Anecdotal Reports Write down the setting as you initially see it, describe the individuals and their relationship, identify the occurring activity. Record everything the targeted student says and does and to whom or to what. Describe everything said and done to the student and by whom. Clearly differentiate between fact and your interpretation of what is being observed. Provide some temporal indications so as to be able to judge duration.

7. Tangible (Permanent Products) Often looking at behavior after the fact Let’s you look at multiple persons, products, and allows for in-depth analysis because the product is durable Look at math test results (for example)

8. Observational Recording Systems Event Recording: –Recording the number of times a behavior occurs Interval Recording: –Recording of whether a behavior occurs during intervals of a specified time period. Time Sampling: –Recording of whether a behavior occurs at the end of an interval during a specified time period. Duration Recording: Recording the length of time a behavior occurs. Latency Recording: Recording the amount of time it takes for a student to begin the targeted behavior.
