measurement
A client engages in aggression 18 times during a 45- minutes session. What is the rate?
0.4 responses per minute
Name the four functions of behavior:
Attention, Escape, tangible, Automatic
prompting immediately before an error occurs is called:
Errorless teaching
What differential reinforcement procedure reinforces and appropriate alterative behavior?
DRA
Can an RBT change a treatment plan?
no, only the BCBA
Recording a behavior only if it occurs at the exact end of an interval.
momentary time sampling
A learner screams until someone looks at them? what's the function?
Attention
A child independently label a picture of a dog after seeing it by saying "dog"
tacting
If extinction is implemented correctly, what temporary increase in behavior is most likely occurs?
Extinction burst
What should you do if you accidentally record incorrect data?
Report & correct it
A client begins crying at 10:02am and stops at 10:39am. What should the RBT record ?
Duration (37 minutes)
A learners cries as she points at the ipad?
tangible
An RBT reinforces every fifth correct response
FR5
A client screams and is required to complete extra cleaning task.
positive punishment
A parent offers you $200 to babysit what should you do?
politely decline
An RBT record the time between the instruction " clean up" and when the client begins cleaning. what is being measured?
Latency
A client repeaedtly hums while working independently. The behavior continues whether the learner is alone, ignored, praised, or given demands. what is the likely function?
Automatic reinforcement
A learner labels "cat" when shown a picture but cannot identify a real cat. what skill has not yet been demonstrated?
generalization
A client screams every time the ipad is removed. The BCBA teaches the client to say "Ipad please" what procedure is being used?
Functional communication training (FCT)
A BCBA ask an RBT to implement a new intervention immedately, but the RBT has not yet recieved training on the procedure. The BCBA is unavalible for the rest of the day. What is the most ethical course of action?
The RBT should not implement the new intervention until they have received training and/or contact BCBA.
Which measurement system is most likely to overestimate the occurrence of behavior?
partial interval recording
A learner begins fighting classmates when ask "clean up" the behavior is immediately stops once the teacher says "ok go sit on the mat" what is the function?
Escape
Why is baseline collected before intervention begins?
To determine the clients current level of performance
A client aggression increases for three days after extinction is implemented. is the intervention necessarily ineffective?
NO
An RBT has developed a close rapport with a client and noticed the BCBA's intervention is not producing the expected results. What is the most ethical action?
The RBT should continue implementing the treatment plan as written while communicating their observation and concerns to BCBA.
