Summary

For some reason Jackie decided that we needed to learn more about visual inspection. So, we did! Now we're all refreshed on the steps involved in analyzing data graphically and making the best treatment decisions possible. If you listen to this week's episode, your graph of "understanding the steps of visual inspection" will be on a very clear increasing trend.

Hey, everybody. Welcome to ABA Inside Track, the podcast that's like reading in your car, but safer. I'm your host Robert Perry Cruz, and with me

0:22.9

as always are my fabulous co-hosts. Hello, Rob, it's Diana. Hi, it's me. High up on a hill,

0:31.8

it's Jackie. Oh boy. Oh, boy. I don't know. Lots of gummy bears. You might not have heard this at home because it's not going to make it into the final recording. But I, as the host of this show about behavior analysis and behavior analytic research discussion, was getting a lot of guff before the taping started. So true. A lot of guff for a topic, Jackie, that you were gung hoho to do. And I, I have been sick all week. Diana

0:57.1

has been kind of sick. We've been sickness in this household. It was the week Jackie took off and

1:01.1

wasn't living in our house. So she did not get sick. I did not get sick. She touched it. She was on

1:05.6

vacation from our house. I actually told Diana not to come to work. I was like, even if you're fine, I'm feeling better, no.

1:30.7

No.

1:31.0

No, Diana.

1:32.8

I wouldn't that delirious.

1:34.4

I still knew that visual inspection referred to the process of reviewing data from our single case research designs to determine experimental effects.

1:45.3

However, I thought it was what everyone thinks behavior analysis is.

1:48.3

Oh, like actually analyzing, hmm, this behavior DNA looks like it's no.

1:52.8

No, no, no.

1:53.5

I knew what it would be.

1:54.2
