Peer reviewedMudford, Oliver C.; And Others – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1990
The representativeness of behavioral observation samples with durations of less than the whole time of interest was investigated with five profoundly mentally retarded physically handicapped adults in an institutional setting. It was found that the session representativeness was a function of the relative duration of the behavioral categories and…
