Frequency/Event Recording

Frequency/Event Recording is an ABA measurement tool for practitioners and assigned recorders observing a discrete, countable target behavior. It helps capture how often the behavior occurs during a defined period and calculate rate when the observation or opportunity denominator is known.

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.

When It Fits

Use it for behaviors with clear onset and offset points that can be counted as separate occurrences.

Rate Requirements

Rate is shown only when the observation time or opportunity denominator is available.

Limits

The tool does not infer behavior function, explain behavior change, or prescribe treatment decisions.

When is rate displayed?

Rate is displayed only when the required observation time or opportunity denominator is available.

Can I correct accidental counts?

Yes. The recording experience supports correction controls, with final count integrity visible in review.

Is this for behaviors without clear separate occurrences?

No. The target behavior needs clear occurrence boundaries before event recording is reliable.

Does the demo save sample observations?

No. Saving keeps the tool and reusable setup, not fictional sample sessions.
