This week, you will continue to practice data collection procedures using videos

This week, you will continue to practice data collection procedures using videos of problem behaviors. First, review the Behavior Assessment: Frequency and Interval Recording activity. You may choose to print out the recording forms provided in the activity (pages 3 and 4) or create your own using a similar format. Be sure to review the operational definition of the target behavior provided on each form. Then, watch the Behavior: Frequency and Interval Recording and collect frequency data on the target behavior defined on the Frequency Recording Form. Finally, you will view the video once again, and collect partial interval data on the target behavior defined on the Partial Interval Recording Form.
Please respond to the following:
Discuss the findings of your data collection experience.
Discuss the frequency data collection experience. What was the total number of behaviors observed? What was rate of the target behavior?
Discuss the results of the partial interval data collection by reporting the percentage of intervals the student engaged in the problem behavior.
Compare the results of the data using both types of measurement.
Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of each method of measurement.
Provide a rationale for using either one for observation of behavior.
What challenges did you have with measuring the frequency and/or partial interval data of this target behavior?
How might you alleviate similar challenges in the future?
