RBT CERTIFICATION EXAM SCRIPT 2026
FULL QUESTIONS AND VERIFIED ANSWERS
100% CORRECT
⩥ How to Prepare for Data Collection. 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. 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. 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. 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. Answer: RBT can assist with training
stakeholders by giving them instruction, modeling, rehearsal, and
feedback with regard to behavioral skills training.
⩥ Report Other Variables. Answer: illness, relocation or change in
medication.
⩥ Components of a Written Behavior Plan. 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. 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. 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).
⩥ 5 Dimensions we can Shape. Answer: 1. Topography
2. Frequency
3. Latency
4. Duration
5. Amplitude/Intensity
, ⩥ Applied Behavior Analysis. 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. Answer: An activity of living organisms.
What an individual does (how they respond in the situation).
It is observable and measurable.
⩥ Response. Answer: Specific instance of behavior.
4 types of Responses:
1. Correct
2. Incorrect
3. Non-Response
4. Prompted
⩥ Respondent Behavior. Answer: Untaught or unconditioned responses.
Reflex.
⩥ Respondent Conditioning. Answer: New stimuli can acquire the
ability to elicit responses.
Occurs through pairing of two stimuli.
