2026 RBT Exam practice with actual
question Score A+
Client Dignity - correct answer>>>Be respectful and thoughtful about the client's needs
and wants.
Never do or say anything to cause embarrassment to the client.
Do not do something in front of your client that you would not do if working with a typical
developing child.
How to Prepare for Data Collection - correct answer>>>1. Read data from last session
2. Prepare material and programs for current session based on data from last session.
3. Determine what programs you plan to work on during the session.
4. Gather materials for those programs.
5. Set up the first set of programs so they are ready for the client when you begin your
session.
The Role of the RBT in the Service Delivery System - correct answer>>>Implement
measurement, assessment, skill acquisition, behavior reduction, documentation and
reporting, and maintain professional conduct in the scope of the practice under the
direct supervision of a BCBA or BCaBA.
RBT Assisting with Individual Assessment Procedures - correct answer>>>The RBT
can interview stakeholders, gather baseline data by observing the client's behaviors in
his/her natural environment, or probe client by asking them to perform a task we are
unsure they can perform without providing assistance.
Dealing with Stakeholders - correct answer>>>The RBT should only communicate with
stakeholders as authorized by the supervisor. Any specific questions should be deferred
to the BCBA or BCaBA. If you do communicate you must be objective, use behavioral
language, avoid speculation, stick to topic appropriate for an RBT.
Assist Training Stakeholders - correct answer>>>RBT can assist with training
stakeholders by giving them instruction, modeling, rehearsal, and feedback with regard
to behavioral skills training.
Report Other Variables - correct answer>>>illness, relocation or change in medication.
Components of a Written Behavior Plan - correct answer>>>1. Identify, describe, create
a goal for a behavior in observable terms.
2. Assess antecedent/consequence that may maintain behavior.
3. Identify hypothesis of function of behavior.
4. Identify possible replacement behaviors.
5. Select and implement antecedent/consequence based interventions.
6. Create crisis intervention plan.
,7. Implementation, modification, generalization and maintenance procedures.
Skill Acquisition Plan - correct answer>>>7 Components
1. Identify the skill deficit
2. Create a goal to address the deficit
3. Establish a data measurement system
4. Take baseline data (Assess current skill level)
5. Select and implement an acquisition procedure.
6. Collect data to assess effectiveness of the procedure.
7. Modify existing plan based on assessment data. (Modify, if necessary) to
maintain/increase effectiveness)
Prepare for Skill Acquisition Plan - correct answer>>>1. Determine what occurred last
session to decide where to start.
2. Select skill acquisition procedures to complete during session.
3. Prepare materials you will need for the skill acquisition (including data collection
protocols).
Ethical - correct answer>>>Pertaining to right and wrong in conduct. Being in
accordance with the rules or standards for right conduct or practice
Feedback and Reflection - correct answer>>>Respond appropriately to feedback and
maintain or improve performance. Take feedback and be a reflective practitioner.
Communication - correct answer>>>Communication with stakeholders as authorized.
Follow protocol of how to communicate.
Communicate effectively with all team members.
Professional Boundaries - correct answer>>>Avoid dual relationships, conflicts of
interest, social media contacts. Always take notes.
5 Dimensions we can Shape - correct answer>>>1. Topography
2. Frequency
3. Latency
4. Duration
5. Amplitude/Intensity
Applied Behavior Analysis - correct answer>>>The science in which tactics derived from
the principles of behavior are applied systematically to improve socially significant
behavior and experimentation is used to identify the variables responsible for behavior
change.
The scientific study of principles of learning and behavior.
Behavior - correct answer>>>An activity of living organisms.
What an individual does (how they respond in the situation).
, It is observable and measurable.
Response - correct answer>>>Specific instance of behavior.
4 types of Responses:
1. Correct
2. Incorrect
3. Non-Response
4. Prompted
Respondent Behavior - correct answer>>>Untaught or unconditioned responses.
Reflex.
Respondent Conditioning - correct answer>>>New stimuli can acquire the ability to elicit
responses.
Occurs through pairing of two stimuli.
Stimulus - Stimulus Pairing (S - S)
Unconditioned Stimulus - correct answer>>>A stimulus that elicits an unconditioned
response.
i.e. Food is an unconditioned stimulus for a hungry animal and salivation is the
unconditioned response.
Unconditioned Response - correct answer>>>A behavior that occurs naturally due to a
given stimulus.
i.e. Dogs salivating in the presence of food; yelping upon being bitten by an insect.
Conditioned Stimulus - correct answer>>>A previously neutral stimulus that, after
repeated association with an unconditioned stimulus, elicits the response produced by
the unconditioned stimulus itself.
Conditioned Response - correct answer>>>A behavior that does not come naturally, but
must be learned by the individual by pairing a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned
stimulus.
Unconditioned Reinforcers - correct answer>>>(AKA primary reinforcers) Stimuli that do
not require learning. (i.e. food, water, warmth, sleep, sexual stimulation)
Conditioned Reinforcers - correct answer>>>(AKA secondary reinforcers) Neutral
stimuli that have been paired with unconditioned reinforcers, or other conditioned
reinforcers and through repeated pairing become reinforcers themselves. (i.e. stickers,
sound, people)
Generalized Conditioned Reinforcers - correct answer>>>Stimuli that have been paired
with a variety of unconditioned and conditioned reinforcers. (i.e. praise, attention,
money, tokens)
