BRM Midterm Study Guide
Dependent Variable - ANS-What's measured to judge outcomes (target behavior/what needs
changed)
Independent Variable - ANS-What's manipulated or the intervention
Disadvantage of single case design - ANS-The experimental trials of single-case designs are
run on only one subject, it is difficult to empirically show with the experiment's data that the
findings will generalize out to larger populations.
External Validity - ANS--When the outcomes can be generalized
-Established through Replication
-Requirement that causal statements can be made based on replications when circumstances
vary
Internal Validity - ANS--When the design and data make it possible to make causal or functional
arguments
-Requirement of replications of treatments and outcomes so that causal statements can be
made
-Most widely accepted analysis of causation
Social Validity - ANS--goes a long way in determining if an intervention is sustainable once the
consultation relationship ends.
-Requirement that consumers may have input into goals, methods, and outcomes
2 approaches to assessment of social validity - ANS-1) Consumer Ratings
2) Peer norm use
Baseline Logic - ANS-Prediction, Verification, Replication by affirmation of the consequent
Prediction - ANS-Baseline
Level of behavior
Is behavior stable or changing
How variable is behavior
Verification - ANS--conducted in order to strength the original prediction
-easiest way to do this is to remove intervention
Replication by Affirmation by consequent - ANS--conducted to strengthen the original
intervention
-easiest way to do this is to re-engage intervention
