RBT definition

Continuous measurement

A plain-language RBT study definition for recording every occurrence of a behavior during the defined observation period.

In plain language

Continuous measurement records each occurrence of the behavior during the observation period. The measurement choice should match the behavior and the decision the team needs to make.

For study, keep the observable definition, timing rule, and recording procedure together. If the definition or procedure is unclear, ask the supervisor for direction before changing how data are collected.
