Explanation

NEW QUESTION 26
A behavior analyst is asked to consult about a 10-year-old child who gets out of his seat during class at

employ would be.

interval recording.

latency recording.

duration recording.

time sampling.

NEW QUESTION 27
To address hitting others, two procedures were compared, differential reinforcement of incompatible
behavior and time-out. The outcomes were examined within and across subjects. A withdrawal design was
employed. The BEST response measure to use in this study is frequency of:

the incompatible behavior.

being sent to time-out.

hitting others.

reinforcer delivery.

NEW QUESTION 28
Tokens are generally referred to as:

Conditioned reinforcers

reversal design.

multi-element design.

multiple baseline design.

NEW QUESTION 30

NEW QUESTION 31
A behavior analyst is working with an adult client, who is deemed competent.
