Behavior and Skill Acquisition Target Default Settings Follow

This article will describe the default configurations of each type of behavior and skill acquisition target option.

*Note: the layout and some names have changed since this video was recorded; however, the default settings remain the same. (Uniform targets are now referred to as multiple similar targets). 

 

When adding a new target to a program, you will see that you have options of what type of target to create.  You are not strictly limited to these types, these are just most commonly used in Motivity.  

 

Behavior Targets

When you click on Behavior Targets, you will see options to create Frequency/Rate, Total Duration, or Interval.

Multiple Similar Targets

After selecting a target type, you will also select if you are creating multiple similar targets or one unique target.

If you select multiple similar targets, this will create a multiple target with the default configurations of whichever target type you chose.  To learn more about uniform targets, refer to this help article.

**Important to note**  After creating a new target, you are able to edit any and all configurations to best fit your needs.  These default configurations were chosen due to the frequency they are generally used for each target type.  They do not restrict your creative ability on Motivity.
