CUSP RBT Exam Material Questions
and Answers 100% Pass
Contingency - ANSWER-Refers to the relations between operant behavior and its
controlling variables
Question: antecedent - ANSWER-An environmental conditions or stimulus
change existing or occurring prior to the behavior of interest
OR
What was happening before the behavior occurred.
Question: Baseline - ANSWER-The condition of an experiment in which the
independent variables is to present.
Question: Preference Assessments - ANSWER-A variety of procedures used to
determine the stimuli that a person prefers.
Question: Deprivation - ANSWER-Used to get a MAND from client. The state of
an organism with respect to how much time has elapsed since it has been
consumed or contacted a particular type of reinforcer.
,Question: Fading - ANSWER-The gradual removal of prompts as the behavior
continues to occur in the presence of the discriminative stimulus.
Question: Discrete Trail - ANSWER-Any operant whose response rate is
controlled by a given opportunity to emit the response.
Question: Differential Reinforcement of alternative behaviors (DRA) - ANSWER-
Reinforcement is delivered for a behavior that serves a desirable alternative to the
behavior targeted for reduction
Question: Task Analysis - ANSWER-The process of breaking a complex skill or
series of behavior into smaller teachable units.
Question: repertoire - ANSWER-All of the behaviors a person can do or a set of
behaviors relevant to a particular setting or task.
Question: Thinning the Schedule of Reinforcement - ANSWER-Gradually
increasing the response ratio or the time interval to access reinforcement.
Question: Forward Chasing - ANSWER-A method for teaching behavior chains
that begins with the learner being prompted and taught to perform the first
behavior in the task analysis and the trainer completes the remaining steps. When
the learner shows competence the next step is introduced.
, Question: Duration - ANSWER-A measure of the total extent of time in which a
behavior occurs
Question: To increase compliance, the BCBA is prescribing the use of positive
reinforcement. What is not an example of positive reinforcement? - ANSWER-
The client gains access to the phone whenever he follows instructions and his
compliance decreases
Question: After his RBT, Jack, presented the SD, "How old are you?", Paul
selected the response, "My name is Paul" on his AAC device. Upon reviewing the
graphs, Paul's scores for this target have remained at or below 50% across 5 days.
What can we assume is missing? - ANSWER-Stimulus control
Question: A stimulus, condition, or event that effects an organism by momentarily
altering the reinforcing effectiveness of some event and the behaviors that have
been reinforced or punished by that event. - ANSWER-Motivation
Question: Which is not an unconditioned/primary reinforcer?
-Sleep
-Gummies
-Praise - ANSWER-CORRECT: Praise
