While in Data Entry, probe data can be collected for skill acquisition programs. The probe feature with data collection in Rethink looks different than teaching data collection in raw data and on the graph. A common way to use the probe feature is to use it to pre-test or post-test individual targets with a client. As you can see below, the probe data collection is graphed differently than the teaching data collection in skill acquisition.
