Comprehensive Study Guide

In this section, provide a comprehensive outline for the BACB Test Content Outline

items bellow.

C. 3. Measure Occurrence

C.4. Measure Temporal Dimensions of Behavior

C.5. Distinguish between continuous and discontinuous measurement procedures.

C.6. Design and apply discontinuous measurement procedures (i.e., whole interval

recording, partial interval recording, momentary time sampling, PLACHECK).

C.8. Evaluate the validity and reliability of measurement procedures

C.9. Select a measurement procedure to obtain representative data that accounts for the

critical dimension of the behavior and environmental constraints

C.12. Select a measurement procedure to obtain representative procedural integrity data

that accounts for relevant dimensions (e.g., accuracy, dosage) and environmental

constraints.

D.1. Distinguish between dependent and independent variables

D.2. Distinguish between internal and external validity.

D.3. Identify threats to internal validity (e.g., history, maturation)

After completing the outline, Provide 5 multiple choice questions. Each question should have 5 answer choices (A-E). Identify the correct answer. Provide a rationale explaining the correct answer choice.
