Character Consistency

Keeping puppet voices, timing, and gestures stable across items to avoid unintended cues.

Character consistency means voices, pacing, and gestures stay steady across items and sides. It supports stimulus equivalence so differences reflect the child’s choice, not delivery quirks.

When producing audio, compare both sides back-to-back and re-record if emphasis drifts.
