RBT / ABA Exam Study Guide with Complete Solutions ABA reversal design - Correct Answer️️ -A single case design on which baseline and intervention conditions are repeated with the same person. Alternating treatment design - Correct Answer️️ -A single case design in which two or more interventions alternate systematically. Antecedents - Correct Answer️️ -Environmental events that occurs before a behavior occurs. Applied behavior analysis - Correct Answer️️ -The attempt to solve behavior problems by providing antecedents and/ or consequences that change a behavior. Aversion therapy - Correct Answer️️ -A form of sensitization training in which a stimulus that arouses an inappropriate positive response is paired with an aversive stimuli. Backup reinforcer - Correct Answer️️ -A reinforcer that may be received in exchange for a token. Backward chaining - Correct Answer️️ -A chaining procedure that begins with the last element in the chain and progresses to the first element.

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED FIRST PUBLISHED: SEPTEMBER 2024 2/17 Baseline - Correct Answer️️ -A period during which the target behavior is recorded, but no attempt is made to modify it. Behavior - Correct Answer️️ -Anything a person does that can be observed. Behavior analysis - Correct Answer️️ -The science of behavior change, the study of functional relations between behavior and environmental events. Behavior chain - Correct Answer️️ -A sequence of related behaviors, each of which provides the cue for the next, and the last of which produces a reinforcer. Behavior trapping - Correct Answer️️ -The procedure of bringing a target behavior under the influence of its natural reinforcers by exposing it to those reinforcers. Behavioral contrast - Correct Answer️️ -The tendency for changes in behavior outside the training environment. Behavioral repertoire - Correct Answer️️ -All things an individual is capable of doing at any given moment. Bootleg reinforcement - Correct Answer️️ -Reinforcement that is not part of; and tends to undermine, an intervention. Chaining - Correct Answer️️ -The reinforcement of successive elements of a behavior chain. Conditioned reinforcers - Correct Answer️️ -Reinforcers that are dependent on their association with other reinforcers.

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED FIRST PUBLISHED: SEPTEMBER 2024 3/17 Conditioning - Correct Answer️️ -Any procedure by which an event comes to elicit a response by being paired with an event that elicits that response. Consequences - Correct Answer️️ -Environmental events that occur after a behavior. Contingency contract - Correct Answer️️ -An agreement between two or more parties about what each is to do for the other. Continuous recording - Correct Answer️️ -Recording each and every occurrence of behavior during a prescribed time. Contrived reinforcers - Correct Answer️️ -Reinforcers that have been arranged by someone for the purpose of modifying behavior. Counterconditioning - Correct Answer️️ -The use of Pavlovian conditioning to undo the adverse effects of earlier conditions. Covert behavior - Correct Answer️️ -Behavior that can be observed only by the person performing it. Convert sensitization - Correct Answer️️ -A variation of aversion therapy in which the paired events are imagined. Cumulative frequency graph - Correct Answer️️ -A graph in which each data point indicates the total number of times the behavior has occurred up to that point.

Daniel's is known for telling people "if you think the stuff your doing is easy our doing it wrong" Desensitization training - Correct Answer️️ -Any form of counterconditioning that reduces an inappropriate negative response to an event. Differential reinforcement - Correct Answer️️ -Any procedure that combines extinction and reinforcement to change the frequency of a target behavior. Discrimination training - Correct Answer️️ -Any procedure that results in a target behavior having different frequencies in different situations. Discriminative stimuli - Correct Answer️️ -Any event in the presence of which a target behavior is likely to have consequences that affect its frequency. DRA (differential reinforcement of alternative behavior) - Correct Answer️️ -The procedure of reducing the frequency of a target b
