A progress entry can use a different condition or measure than the baseline.

A progress entry can use a different condition or measure than the baseline. APTA publishes documentation guidance across the care episode. A therapist can create a fictional or tabletop example that tests whether a model preserves measurement conditions and goal versions. APTA documentation guidance
Use a dummy object-placement task and an original worksheet. Record one count with a fixed time window and another with a longer window. Change the goal wording between versions. Ask which results can be compared, and have a reviewer verify the units, timing and goal independently.
Use inert props or consenting adult staff in a training room. Exclude patients, gait videos, actual speech or hearing assessments and case histories. Keep outcomes and treatment judgments outside the exercise.
Describe a simulated therapy measurement sample
Original Fiund exercise
A longer task window and a revised goal need separate comparison fields
An original tabletop object-placement task uses inert props and artificial counts. It contains no patient, gait, speech or hearing assessment, treatment or outcome claim.
| Record | Source | What it records |
|---|---|---|
| TG1 | Goal G1 baseline | Original goal: place 5 objects within 30 seconds. Baseline B1: 4 objects in 30 seconds, condition C. |
| TG2 | Goal G2 revision | Approved goal changes to 8 objects within 60 seconds. Follow-up F1: 7 objects in 60 seconds, same stated condition C. |
| TG3 | Summary draft | Draft says count improved by 3 under the same goal and that revised target was met. No common-window follow-up supplied. |
Question for the model
What do the two observations establish under their own goals, and why is the draft's unchanged-goal comparison unsupported?
Show the reference answer and checks
TG1 documents four objects against G1's five-in-30-seconds target. TG2 documents seven against G2's eight-in-60-seconds target, so neither stated count meets its own threshold. TG3 overlooks both the doubled window and changed goal. Report the original measures and versions rather than call the raw three-object difference an unchanged-goal improvement. The fixture does not establish clinical progress or treatment effectiveness.
- Comparing raw counts across different time windows as if the task basis were unchanged.
- Scoring a revised goal using an earlier target or claiming success below the stated threshold.
Fields to preserve
- Goal ID and approved wording
- Defines the target.
- Observation count, window and condition
- Preserves measurement basis.
- Goal-linked result and missing common window
- Limits interpretation.
Test another case
Add a 30-second F1 subinterval count of four. Require the common-window comparison to show equal counts while retaining the separate 60-second result.
Use original measures and consenting adult staff with inert props. Exclude actual assessments and histories; practitioners retain outcome judgments.

Describe the sources you control, the task they could support and what has already been checked. Use the existing-data assessment for an archive or the collection brief for a new recording project. The contributor agreement defines Fiund’s licensing authority and compensation. A guide or fictional exercise does not establish an accepted collection or a sale.
