I would like to start with terminoligy (so we all are on same page)
In the case of cadaver dog assuming it is a passive responce (I know yours is Nancy). I record correct responces 1. indicating by sitting/downing at target odor as a true positive. 2. sniffing but not indicating on a controll true negative I record incorrect responces 3. Indicating on a control false positive 4. sniffing but not indicating on a target odor false negative 5. incomplete responces either as a false positive or a false negative depending on whether on target odor or a control. such as a major hesitation or momentay partial sit/down (this can be gray). The calculation would depend on how you train or test in my case I use controls, (duplicate containers and rewards) so calculation are made on numer of correct responces on both control and target odor are used to calculate, others may not do to method. But I thought I would throw out base terminoligy to see what others might use.
