100

This is how you would measure every instance of elopement throughout session. 

What is frequency?

100

This is when you take a single behavior with many steps, such as hand washing, and break them down into individual steps. 

What is chaining?

100

This is how many times your supervisor needs to observe you per month minimum. 

What is once?

100

This is the kind of prompt where you tell the client what to do.

What is a verbal prompt?

100

This a program or verbal operant where the client labels something. 

What is tacting?

200

This is how you would measure the time between providing the SD "Do this" (clap hands) and the client beginning to clap her hands. 

What is Latency? 

200

The following program for eating at the table can be  described by this ABA term:

Eating only in your room. Then eating in the hallway. Then eating next to the table. Then eating at the table for half the meal. Then eating at the table for the whole meeting. 

What is shaping?

200

This is how many meetings you must have with your supervisor per month?

What is two?

200

This is the kind of prompt where you point to the correct response. 

What is a gesture prompt?

200

This is the kind of preference assessment where you have more than two items, you present them to the client, and ask them to choose one. Once they choose one, you let them experience the item while you record the data, and shuffle the items. You then re-present the items without replacing the item and ask them to make another choice. 

What is an MSWO (multiple stimulus w/out replacement) preference assessment?

300

This is how you would measure the length of time that a tantrum lasts. 

What is duration?

300

This is what you use when you break down all of the steps for a chaining behavior such as hand washing.

What is a task analysis?

300

This is how many one-on-one supervisions you must have with your supervisor each month?

What is one?

300

This is the hierarchy of prompting where you begin with a less intrusive prompt and slowly increase to more and more intrusive prompts. 

What is least to most prompting?

300

This is the best birthday gift to give to your client. 

What is no gift?

400

This is the measurement where you look to see if a behavior is occurring at the end of the interval. 

What is momentary time sampling?

400

This is when the RBT does the entire task analysis except the very last step, where the client then would ideally do that step independently. 

What is backwards chaining?

400

This is how many group RBT supervisions you must have per month?

What is none? (group supervisions are optional)

400

This is the kind of prompt where you show the client what the correct response is by doing it yourself. 

What is a model prompt?

400

This is the term for when you stop providing reinforcement for a behavior that was previously reinforced. 

What is extinction?

500

This is where you record whether the behavior happened at any time during an interval. 

What is partial interval recording?

500

This is the term for the behaviors that occur during a shaping program where you get closer and closer to the target behavior. 

What are successive approximations?

500

This is the calculation for the duration of supervision that you must receive each month from your supervisor?

What is 5% of the hours that you worked directly with clients?

500

This is the most intrusive prompt where you use hand-over-hand to prompt the client for the correct response.

What is a full physical prompt?

500

This is the term for removing an item from the environment to decrease the likelihood of that behavior from occurring in the future. 

What is negative punishment?
