These are ways in which an RBT can prepare to collect data:
What is: defining the target behavior, have materials ready (pencil, sheet), identifying when/what you are observing, establish this with other professionals
100

Ensuring the definition of a target behavior is clear enough so that all data collectors are know what they are looking for (not subjective). Hint: 2 key words

What is writing behavior objectives in observable and measurable terms.

100

This type of reinforcement is used when teaching new skills and reinforcing each instance of a desired behavior.

What is continuous reinforcement. BONUS: When is intermittent reinforcement used?

100

Why behavior occurs and common reasons why problem behavior occurs.

What is the function of behavior. Obtain: Attention, Tangibles, Stimulation Avoid: Attention, Task/Situation, Stimulation

100

These are variables that may affect a client that are important to note in your objective data collection.

What are: illness, relocation, medication, sleep disturbances, outside issues with family

200

A discontinues measurement that records whether a behavior has occurred at any point in the time interval or not.

Partial Interval

200

Name two ways we can directly identify a student's preferred items/activities.

What is preference assessments: paired choice, MSW, MSWO, free operant

200

Differentially reinforcing successive approximations of a skill or behavior being taught.

What is: Shaping

200

No longer reinforcing a behavior that was previously reinforced

Extinction

200

This is the policy that you follow as an RBT in relation to abuse and neglect reporting.

What is a mandated reporter.

300
These are examples of discontinuous data collection procedures (you must be able to define each of these three).
What are: partial interval, whole interval and momentary time sampling
300
An assessment that manipulating the environment, triggering problem behavior to find the function of specific behavior.

What is: A functional analysis

300
These are the four components of a discrete trial in discrete trial teaching:
What is: the discriminative stimulus (Sd), client response and the reinforcing stimulus and the intertrial interval
300

Taking away the client's tokens in response to a problem behavior to reduce the likelihood that the client will engage in the problem behavior again

Negative Punishment

300

These are roles of an RBT

What is the implementation of intervention plans, assist in the assessment of clients, take and enter data, follow the ethical guidelines of RBT through the BACB.

400
This type of data collection involves looking at the impact of the behavior on the environment.
What is permanent product recording.
400

Data that is taken to determine what occurs before the behavior and after the behavior occurs. 

ABC data

400
When reducing your prompts over time to increase independence this is called:
What is prompt fading
400
These are procedures where you are reinforcing other or alternative behaviors instead of the problem behavior.
What is Differential Reinforcement of Other or Alternative Behavior (DRA, DRO) BONUS: Give an example of a DRA or DRO
400

RBTs must follow a subset of the Guidelines of Responsible Conduct for Behavior Analysts. Name 2

 Two examples of these are: maintaining confidentiality and avoiding false statements- which mean...

500

What type of measurement is Frequency and Duration?

Continuous measurement

500
Describe how you as an RBT will assist with Functional Assessment procedures
What is: collect ABC data, define target behaviors, describe the environment, enter data, discuss other variables that may impact behavior
500

The therapist prompts the entire task analysis chain leaving the last step to be done independently. Once the last step is mastered independently, the client then learns to do the last two steps independently and then the last 3 steps and so on.

Backwards chaining

500

A procedure for decreasing problem behavior by reinforcing the absence of problem behavior during or at specific times.

DRO

500
Informing clients of their rights, involving them in treatment decisions, obtaining informed consent, considering client needs and wants, not talking about clients in front of them- these are all examples of....
What is how to maintain client dignity.
