Interval in Excel - Track Student Behaviors That Are Too Frequent for Frequency Count

Interval in Excel is an effective tool for tracking student behaviors that are too frequent for frequency count, such as calling out or making repetitive noises. This product is designed to help you quantify behavior data, save time, and clearly demonstrate the need for additional support to your administration.

How to Use Interval in Excel

To use Interval in Excel, select a partial interval behavior data collection sheet where the day is divided into 5-minute or 10-minute segments. Simply indicate with a plus sign whether the behavior occurred even once during that time period.

At the end of the day, calculate the percentage of intervals in which the behavior was observed by dividing the total number of intervals in which the behavior occurred by the total number of intervals.

Your purchase of Interval in Excel includes:

• 6 different Interval Recording Forms
• Daily Behavior Interval Excel Graphs through the 2025-2026 school year
• Common Data Collection Methods Quick Overview
• Quick Excel Tips
• Example Behavior Graph with Phase Line and Trend Line

Add Phase Lines to Your Graph

Increase the usefulness of your graph by using phase lines. Add a phase line to the graph when changes occur, such as medication changes, class changes, or living situations. Over time, you can use this information to identify potential causes of behavioral difficulties or reasons for behavior improvement.

Using phase lines can be especially helpful when working with students who have a Behavior Intervention Plan. They help you determine the effectiveness of your interventions. Instructions on how to use phase lines are included in your purchase.

Note: While the graph can work on both Excel and Google Sheets, phase lines can only be added using Excel.
