Document Summary
Psycho 282 b-mod chapter 3: graphing behavior and measuring change. Graphical behavioral data: add data points and connect them include the phase line (make sure to not to connect the line here) add phase label add axis labels. Graphing data from different recording procedures: you can make any graph the only thing that will change are the y axis labels and numbers. Not a true research design (it does not rule out that extraneous factors might have changed the behavior). This is why rarely used by b-mod researchers. Is an extension of the simple ab design (basically you do ab then ab and then. Ab that is why called a reversal design). Example is baseline treatment basement then the same treatment again (so you get 2 baselines and 2 treatments on the graph. Demand bad behavior by student (1) no demand good behavior by student. (note: have to be same person in same setting )
