RBT Mock Exam 1 Task List A Questions 1. An RBT recently got hired at an ABA clinic and wants to build their fluency by delivering trials during discrete trial training. They define their goal as decreasing the amount of time between the first trial and the next trial. What measurement would give them the most accurate data: A) Latency B) Rate C) Duration D) Interresponse time 2. An RBT is working with a grade 7 student who has long division math equations as part of their programming. The BCBA created a math test which has 25 questions on it. The client did very well and scored 23/25. This would be an example of: A) Percentage of occurrence B) Trials to criterion C) Rate D) Celeration 3. An RBT is working with a client who is completing word searches. Out of nowhere the RBT gets an emergency call and has to leave the session. The BCBA supervisor keeps an eye on the client from a distance while they help the RBT. The BCBA is then still able to score accurate data on the accuracy of the word searches even though they didn’t observe the client completing them. What would allow the BCBA to do this: A) Momentary time sampling B) Total count C) Permanent product recording D) Total frequency 4. An RBT is shadowing another RBT to eventually complete some interobserver agreement checks. The target behaviour is desk slaps which look like the client making open hand contact with a hard surface. The RBT does a 90 minute observation on day 1, a 30 minute observation on day 2 and a 60 minute observation on day 3. Based on the definition of the behaviour and these observations, what data most accurately represents the target behaviour: A) Rate B) Count C) Frequency D) Total duration Property of RBT Made Simple Do not distribute, reproduce or duplicate without written consent.

RBT Mock Exam 1 5. An RBT is providing services to a triad of clients which includes Marcus, Allison and John. During the triad the RBT sets them all up on an independent work system. At exactly the 15 minute mark she decides to check on all three clients and scores them with a plus or a minus on whether they were seated or not. This is likely: A) Whole interval recording B) PLACHECK C) Partial interval recording D) Both A and C 6. An RBT is reviewing a client graph and notices that it is a cumulative record which is tracking total targets acquired. What would the RBT never expect to see on the cumulative record: A) Total targets acquired going up in value B) Total targets acquired remaining flat C) Total targets acquired decreasing in value D) These are possible outcomes on a cumulative record 7. An RBT is working in the office and a colleague opens the front door letting in a freezing cold burst of air. The freezing cold air hits the RBT right in the back of the neck. The cold air hitting the RBT in the back of the neck is an example of what kind of behaviour: A) Overt B) Covert C) Not a behaviour D) Both overt and covert 8. An RBT sets up a spelling contest for their clients and puts them up against each other. The objective of the contest is to see who can spell 10 words correctly the fastest when given unlimited words to spell. What data collection method would provide accurate data for the RBT: A) Percentage of occurrence B) Rate C) Frequency D) Trials to criterion 9. An RBT takes their client for a hike at a nearby lake. Out of nowhere the client picks up a huge rock and throws it right into the lake making a huge splash. This is an example of: A) A covert behaviour B) An overt behaviour C) Both a covert and overt behaviour D) Not a behaviour Property of RBT Made Simple Do not distribute, reproduce or duplicate without written consent.

RBT Mock Exam 1 10. A RBT is asked to take data on a student in a kindergarten class during their circle time routine. The RBT is asked to track whether the student can remain seated for 5 consecutive minutes. What data collection method is going to capture this best: A) Partial interval recording B) PLACHECK C) Whole interval recording D) Momentary time same Task List B Questions 1. Ryan, an RBT, knows that based on their job duties only a BCBA can write up a functional analysis. One day Ryan’s BCBA supervisor approaches him and asks him to join him implementing a functional analysis. The BCBA supervisor states that Ryan’s role will be to collect data. Ethically, what can Ryan do: A) Ryan cannot collect data because only BCBA’s are allowed to collect data during a functional analysis B) Ryan can support the functional analysis by collecting data C) Ryan would need to report the BCBA supervisor to either the owner of the company or to the BACB if there is no one higher than the BCBA at the company D) Ryan could only be on standby as crisis support if the client was aggressive 2. A client makes an error while an RBT is baselining a target. The RBT should: A) Repeat the S(d), use least-to-most prompting when error correcting, move onto the next target B) Repeat the S(d), full prompt the client to ensure they are successful, deliver 3 distractor trials, repeat the S(d), allow for an independent opportunity C) Ignore the error and move onto another target D) Repeat the S(d), use most-to-least prompting when error correcting, move onto the next target 3. An RBT is told to collect about 10 potential reinforcers that they think the client may like. The RBT is then told to present one item in each hand and have the client make a selection. Once the client makes a selection, this should be recorded and the client gets about 20-30 seconds of engagement with that item. What type of preference assessment might this be: A) Multiple stimulus presentation method B) Single stimulus C) Free operant D) Paired choice Property of RBT Made Simple Do not distribute, reproduce or duplicate without written consent.

A BCBA supervisor wants to know what the most precise method of determining the function of a problem behaviour is relative to other methods. The RBT tells them that it’s: A) A functional analysis B) ABC narrative direct observations C) A component analysis D) A double blind preference assessment 6. A new client has recently started at the clinic and a BCBA supervisor has asked an RBT to take some data for a direct assessment. What may this include: A) Interview with parents B) Collecting reports from previous providers and stakeholders C) ABC narrative recording D) All of the above 7.

What form of generalization is this likely: A) Train and hope method B) Training loosely C) Sequential modification D) Use indiscriminable contingencies 4. An RBT in doing Discrete Trial Training with a client working on listener responding by feature, function and class. The target is animals that have stripes.

Based on only this information, what should the RBT have done differently: A) The RBT should have repeated the S(d) and increased prompting B) The RBT should have conducted an error correction C) The S(d) should have been, “find the stripes” D) Nothing, this was a correct discrete trial training example Property of RBT Made Simple Do not distribute, reproduce or duplicate without written consent.
