摘要

课堂观察经常是为了将目标学生的行为与同一教室内其他同学的行为进行比较。研究人员和从业人员可以使用各种程序来收集此类数据;然而,相对于对目标学生、作为班级代表的同龄人以及整个班级的连续行为记录,这种程序所产生的行为估计的准确性知之甚少。本研究的目的是评估相对于持续时间记录,经常使用的同伴比较观察程序估计的准确性。模拟了4000个课堂观察的数据,模拟了课堂行为水平和观察时间的变化。结果表明,每五次间隔程序导致目标学生在单次观察中的绝对误差最低,有计划的活动检查导致对全班行为的最准确估计。尽管单个观察的准确性水平存在明显差异,但当比较所有相同类型的观察(即持续时间、课堂行为水平和观察程序)时,不同程序之间的准确性差异并不明显。

The Accuracy of Peer Comparison Observations: A Simulated Analysis
Classroom observations are frequently conducted with the purpose of comparing the behavior of a target student to that of other peers within the same classroom. A variety of procedures may be utilized by researchers and practitioners to collect such data; however, little is known of the accuracy of estimates of behavior produced by such procedures relative to continuous behavior recording for the target student, peers sampled as a representation of the class, and the class as a whole. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the accuracy of estimates of frequently utilized peer comparison observation procedures relative to duration recording. Data were simulated for 4,000 classroom observations, with variations in level of classroom behavior and length of observation being simulated. Results indicated that an Every Fifth interval procedure resulted in the lowest levels of absolute error during single observations for target students, with planned activity checks resulting in the most accurate estimates of class-wide behavior. Despite differences being apparent in level of accuracy of single observations, differences in accuracy across procedures were not apparent when all observations of the same type (i.e., duration, level of classroom behavior, and observation procedure) were compared.
