Event-Following Celeration Line
Return to Home Page Six Celerations Menu Previous celeration | Next celeration
Description
You draw an Event-Following celeration each time an event, or condition changes. Event-Following celerations show the trends during each phase of an experiment. Any time the condition changes, draw a new celeration line. An Event-Following celeration, then, typically consists of several celeration lines.
An Event-Following celeration may prove useful in showing the effects of manipulating an independent variable.
In the drawing above, each new event is shown by a black vertical line. Each phase of the experiment is identified with a capital letter. The first phase is also identified as a "Baseline."
Notices
The chart shown above represents a likeness only of a standard celeration chart. The chart shown above is also a "stylized" chart. That means that I constructed it for teaching and illustrative purposes only. It does not show real data. The frequency dots are larger, proportionately, and the celeration lines range through more chart cycles, than one typically finds.
Dr. Ogden R. Lindsley invented the Standard Celeration Chart, founded Behavior Research Company, and has been the main proponent and developer of both Precision Teaching and standard celeration charting.
