RBT RELIAS PRACTICE EXAM
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Interobserver agreement (IOA) - Answer-When 2 data collectors agree on data
collected at the same time during the display of the behavior
In ABA, which is the best reason why behaviors are targeted for increase - Answer-So
learners can increase overall skill repertoires
Teaching targets on the written skill acquisition plan - Answer-Tell the behavior
technician what to present
Which of the following is an example of defective mand? - Answer-Crying when wanting
a drink
DRO involves - Answer-Setting an interval for the problem behavior not to be displayed
and reinforcing the child if it is not displayed
Extinction works by - Answer-Abruptly stopping reinforcement for problem behavior
Which of the following could ensure that an intervention involving the use of punishment
is effective? - Answer-Collecting and reviewing intervention data
The process of defining target behaviors using a precise definition is called: - Answer-
Operationally defining the behavior
Why is it important to define a behavior in observable and measurable terms? - Answer-
So the behavior's occurrence can be agreed upon by different observers
Which of the following data recording procedures is best used for behaviors that have a
clear ending and a clear beginning but do not occur throughout an interval, yet still
occur at high rates? - Answer-Partial interval
Data are plotted on line graphs according to: - Answer-The number of instances of the
behavior across time
Which of the following is an example of permanent product recording? - Answer-5
broken chairs after the incident
The y, or vertical, axis on a graph shows: - Answer-The number of behaviors
In a multiple stimulus with replacement preference assessment, the choice the learner
makes on the initial trial is: - Answer-Replaced and put with different items on the
second trial
