Data Collection: Interval Recording
This data collection form is intended for use by teachers, paraprofessionals, and other service providers collecting data for student Individualized Education Program (IEP) goals and baseline data to determine a need for new/updated IEP goals or behavior intervention.
Interval recording involves observing whether a behavior occurs or does not occur during specified time periods and is useful for high-rate behaviors that are difficult to count and/or do not have a clear beginning or end.
If you have questions about when or how often to collect data, refer to the student’s IEP and/or reach out to their Admission, Review, and Dismissal (ARD) committee members for guidance.
