Document Summary
Frequency: number of instances of a behaviour that occurs in a given period of time. Duration: length of time that it occurs within a time period. Degree of correlation between a stimulus and a response. Time between the occurrence of a stimulus and the beginning of that behaviour. Short and of equal lengths within an observation period. A short interval within a much larger observation period (which typically is repeated) The observation interval reduced to a single point in time. Small intervals of equal length within an observation period. Record behaviour as having occurred once in an interval if it occurred throughout that interval. Record behaviour as having occurred once in an interval if it occurred at least once during the interval. Record behaviour as having occurred once in an interval if it was occurring at the momentary observation point. Record behaviour only during some portion of the intervals (ex. once every 4 intervals)
