Tracking Behavior for Different Outcomes
Effective behavior tracking requires setting clear goals and strategies for each outcome you wish to achieve. With Tally Flex, educators can tailor behavior-tracking to meet various objectives, whether you're looking to increase positive behaviors, decrease undesired behaviors, or monitor overall trends. Below, we’ll walk through how to use Tally Flex for each goal.
Decreasing Negative Behaviors
Decreasing Negative Behaviors
To reduce undesirable behaviors in the classroom, it's crucial to monitor the frequency and severity of these behaviors, identify patterns, and implement targeted interventions. Tally Flex allows for precise tracking and analysis of negative behaviors, making it easier to track the effectiveness of interventions.
Increasing Positive Behaviors
Increasing Positive Behaviors
One of the core objectives of behavior tracking is to increase positive behaviors in the classroom. Tally Flex allows teachers to track and reinforce behaviors that align with desired classroom outcomes.
When to Use Different Methods of Behavior Tracking
When to Use Different Methods of Behavior Tracking
In behavior tracking, choosing the right method for data collection is crucial for accurately assessing student behavior. Different behaviors require different tracking methods based on their nature, frequency, and the goals of the intervention. Tally Flex supports a variety of data collection methods, allowing you to track behavior in the most meaningful and efficient way.
Below, we’ll discuss when and how to use several common methods of behavior tracking: duration, frequency, latency, percent correct, partial interval, and whole interval.

Duration
Measures how long a behavior lasts.

Frequency
Counts how often a behavior occurs.
LatencyLatency
Latency
Measures the time between a prompt and when the behavior starts.
Percent correctPercent Correct
Percent Correct
Tracks the percentage of correct responses out of total opportunities.
Partial intervalPartial Interval
Partial Interval
Records if a behavior occurred at any point during a time interval.
Whole intervalWhole Interval
Whole Interval
Records if a behavior occurred for the entire duration of a time interval.
