Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three subcomponents of a specific behavioral objective are observable behavior, conditions under which it occurs, and acceptable performance. This is also known as the ABCs of a behavioral objective. Option A is incorrect because it includes an additional component of an observed outcome that may not always be necessary for a behavioral objective. Option C is incorrect because it does not specifically address the three necessary components of a behavioral objective. Option D is partially correct because it includes criteria and outcomes, but it does not include the necessary component of conditions under which the behavior occurs.
