Off-task behaviors prior to and after obtaining the students' AR were compiled by computing the rate of off-task bebavior for each word in the instructional sequence, and taking the mean rate of off-task behavior between two sessions. Figure 1 graphically displays each student's mean off-task behaviors/minute prior to and after reaching AR^ suggesting an increase in post-AR mean off-task behavior for each student. The mean pre-AR off-task behavior was .56 behaviors/minute {SD = .72). Post-AR behaviors resulted in 1.63 mean offtask behaviors/minute (SD=1.73).
