When Performance Improvement Is the Goal: A New Set of Criteria for Criteria.

Komaki, Judith L.

Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v31 n2 p263-80 Sum 1998

Five criteria are proposed for evaluating performance in research studies: the directness of sampling, the responsiveness of the target, the reliability of the observers, the frequent assessment of the target during the intervention period, and the critical nature of the target. A case study illustrates effectiveness of the criteria. (Author/CR)
