cumulative record
|
a type of graph on which the cumulative number of responses emitted is represented on the vertical axis, the steeper the slope the greater the response rate
|
|
cumulative recorder
|
a device that automatically draws cumulative record graphs that show the rate of response in real time; each time a response is emitted, a pen moves upward across paper that continuously moves at a constant speed
|
|
data
|
the results of measurement, usually in quantifiable form
|
|
data path
|
the level and trend of behavior between successive data point
|
|
level
|
the value pf the vertical axis around which a series of behavioral measures converge.
|
|
local response rate
|
the average rate of response during a smaller period of time withing a larger period for which an overall response rate has begun
|
|
overall response rate
|
the rate of response over a given period
|
|
semi logarithmic chart
|
a two dimensional graph with a logarithmic scaled y axis so that equal distances o the vertical axis represent changes in behavior that are of equal proportion.
|
|
split-middle line of progress
|
a line drawn through a series of graphed data points that shows overall trend in the data
|
|
Standard Celeration Chart
|
a multiple-divide chart with six base-10(or x 10, divided by 10) cycles on the vertical axis that can accommodate response rates as low as 1 per 24 hours. It enables the standardized charting of celeration, a factor by which rate of behavior multiplies or divides per unit of time
|
|
trend
|
the overall direction taken by a data path. It is described in terms of direction (increasing, decreasing or zero), degree (steep or gradual) and the extent of variability of data points around the trend.
|
|
variability
|
the frequency and extent to which multiple measures of behavior yield different outcomes.
|
|
visual analysis
|
a systematic approach for interpreting results of behavioral research and treatment programs that entails visual inspection of graphed data for variability, level, trend within and between experimental conditions.
