Example: The client engages in an average of 16 instances of screaming per hour. Duration: A measure of the total time that the behavior occurs. Example: One instance of screaming lasted for 37 seconds. Latency: The elapsed time from the onset of a stimulus to the time that the response started. Example: The teacher said touch dog, and 4 seconds later, the client touched the dog. The latency is 4 seconds in this scenario. Interresponse time (IRT): Elapsed time between two successive responses. Example: 13 seconds passed in between the two instances of screaming. You try. 1. If you are tracking a behavior that usually lasts anywhere from 5 seconds to 3 minutes on average, what method would you use to measure the behavior? Duration. 2. Why is calculating IRT important? Calculating IRT is a good way to determine an appropriate interval length for DRO schedules. It will let you know how long the client goes on average WITHOUT engaging in a certain problem behavior.
