what people do (e.g., expressions of criticism and contempt), in contrast to what people have (e.g., depression). It includes how people move and what they say, think, and feel. See also Behavior product, Covert behavior, and Overt behavior Behavior
effects or results of behaviors, not the behaviors themselves (e.g., number of cigarette butts in an ashtray as a product of smoking cigarettes). Behavior product
behavior that can be observed by others (at least theoretically). (Contrast with Covert behavior.) Overt behavior
behavior that occurs within individuals and therefore cannot be observed by others, at least directly. (Contrast with Overt behavior.) Covert behavior
observation of overt behavior by outside observers Direct observation
systematic observation and recording by a person of his or her behavior or other experiences Self-monitoring
number of times a behavior occurs. Also known as frequency Count
length of time it takes for a behavior to occur in relation to some stimulus (e.g., amount of elapsed time between a parent asking a child to go to bed and the time the child gets into bed). Also known as response latency Latency
length of time between the occurrence of two successive instances of the same behavior (e.g., amount of time between completing two tasks or between two thoughts) Interresponse time
contrived circumstances designed to elicit a sample of behavior that is representative of behavior that occurs in the natural environment. See also Enactment analogue, Paper-and-pencil analogue, and Role-playing analogue Analogue situation
type of analogue situation in which the client interacts in the agency or clinical setting with people he or she has difficulty interacting with in the natural environment. See also Paper-and-pencil analogue and Role-playing analogue Enactment analogue
type of analogue situation in which the client is asked to respond orally or in writing to a situation presented in written form. See also Enactment analogue and Role-playing analogue Paper-and-pencil analogue
type of analogue situation in which the client is asked to visualize a situation in the natural environment and his or her response to it, or to act out situations with the practitioner or others (e.g., in group therapy) role-playing relevant people. See also Enactment analogue and Paper-and-pencil analogue Role-playing analogue
unintended change over time in the way an observer measures a behavior due, for example, to changes in how the observer interprets the original definitions of the behavior Observer drift
degree to which measurement procedures produce changes in what is being measured Reactivity
