interval recording
1) A strategy used in applied behavior analysis to assess the rate of target behavior. A block of time is selected and divided into short-equal intervals, and if the target behavior occurs it is recorded once in an appropriate time bin. For example, a 30-minute segment of mathematics class may be divided into 10-second bins. Regardless of the number of responses, if the behavior occurs in a given 10-second segment, then the observer records it as a single event.
2) A a method of observation in which a response is recorded if some part of a behavioral episode is observed within one of a series of continuous intervals.
3) A discontinuous observation procedure that involves dividing observational periods into brief intervals and, according to some rule, scoring intervals in which the target behavior occurs.
4) Recording whether a behavior occurs during each of a series of short intervals within an observation period.
