Behavioral assessment

Video is a very common tool in behavioral assessment. Live scoring and comment recording adds an extra dimension. It makes it much easier to retrieve relevant episodes in the video. Many researchers use The Observer^® XT to code behavior and make clips of those parts of video that are of interest to them. Significant environmental and individual factors can be identified on video. Problem behavior can thus be addressed directly.

Contrary to pen-and-paper scoring, video observation techniques offer a reference to the original material, allowing you to discuss your findings with clients or colleagues. This type of research is typically carried out in a lab, or on-site with a portable lab. The Observer XT is at the core of every Noldus lab.
