Mobile app graphs

Mobile app graphs will not show a monthly or weekly display since they only show the last 5 data points entered for a behavior. All individual session data for behaviors will be displayed the same.

This may be an enhancement brought to the app in the future.

Calculation for Weekly

• When using the weekly option to calculate behavior support goals, Sunday through Saturday = 1 week; one week = 7 days

• Weekly calculation = Total of all data days/ total number of data days

• Ex.  day 1 = 7 times, day 2= 9 times, day 3= 2 times, and day 4= 4 times; 7+ 9 + 2 + 4 = 22 times/4 days = 5.5 times/week

• Across 7 days, there were 4 days of data, the weekly average for the behavior was 5.5 times/week

Calculation for Monthly

• When using the monthly option to calculate behavior support goals, 30 days = 1 month

• Monthly calculation = Average of all data days / total number of data days

• Ex.  80% (day 1) + 20% (day 2) + 40% (day 3) + 80% (day 4) + 80% (day 5) + 90% (day 6) + 40% (day 7)+  90% (day 8) + 80% (day 9) + 80% (day 10) =680/10 (average of all days with data)/(total data days) = 68%

• Across 30 days, there were 10 days of data, the monthly average for the behavior was 68%
