Description
Data from a multiple baseline design across participant that evaluated the effectiveness of use of manual signs with verbalizations in improving appropriate communicative behavior and reducing inappropriate behavior. The study aimed to increase positive communicative behavior to 1 and reduce the proportion of intervals engaged in problem behavior to 0. These two outcomes were combined to create the dependent variable: proportion of communicative opportunities with a signed request. The variables are as follows:
-
StudyID. Study identifier. -
StudyID_CaseID. Participant identifier. -
Session_number. Within-series session-number. -
Condition. Indicates condition, (A for baseline, B for treatment). -
Outcome. Value for the outcome variable. -
Session_length. Length of the session. -
Procedure. Scale of the outcome variable. -
Goal_level. Indicates the goal level for each series.
Format
A data frame with 100 rows and 8 variables
