When It Is Used
Use this record when SAP-O, SAP-R, or other evidence is not enough to judge functional performance confidently on relevant objectives.
Behavior Sampling Record
Behavior Sampling Record is a practitioner-only SCERTS supplemental evidence tool. Practitioners use it when observation and informant data are not enough to judge a child's functional performance confidently.
Select sample objectives, record a fictional behavior sample, and review how the sample confirms, refines, or challenges other evidence.

Tool guide
Learn more about this tool
Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.
What It Captures
The record captures sampling reason, objective links, context, observed behavior evidence, and practitioner-selected relationship to existing evidence.
Limits
The tool is not a general behavior log and does not add causal hypotheses, intervention recommendations, diagnostic conclusions, or invented sampling protocols.
Is this a general behavior tracker?
No. Behavior Sampling Record is supplemental assessment evidence tied to relevant objectives, not open-ended behavior tracking.
What makes a sample incomplete?
A sample without objective linkage or sufficient behavior detail remains incomplete or draft.
Can conflicting evidence be resolved automatically?
No. Evidence that conflicts with other data is shown descriptively rather than resolved automatically.
What is saved from the demo?
The tool and reusable setup are saved. Fictional behavior samples and demo comparison data are not saved as real client data.
