Latency Recording

Latency Recording is an ABA timing tool for practitioners and assigned recorders measuring how long it takes a client to begin a target response after a specified antecedent, cue, or instruction. It helps capture latency values across comparable opportunities and review whether delay is increasing, decreasing, or stable over time.

Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

Complete Timing Pairs

A latency value requires both a start event and a stop event; incomplete pairs remain visibly incomplete.

Non-Response

The supplied record does not define a scoring convention for non-response, so the demo marks it unresolved unless a supported rule is configured later.

Limits

The tool does not choose prompts, infer skill mastery, explain delay, or recommend teaching procedures.

What starts the timer?

A practitioner-defined antecedent, cue, or instruction starts the timer.

What stops the timer?

The practitioner-defined response onset stops the timer.

Can a latency value be created without a stop event?

No. Missing stop events remain incomplete and do not become completed latency values.

Does the tool score non-response?

Not by default. The supplied record does not define a non-response scoring convention.
