ABA glossary

Percentage of intervals

The number of intervals scored divided by the total number of intervals, multiplied by 100. It is an estimate from interval recording, not an exact percentage of time.

Example from a session

Behavior was scored in 18 of 60 intervals, so it occurred in 30% of intervals.
