RBT COMPETENCY ASSESSMENT DETAILED
COMPETENCY PREPARATION WORKBOOK
©Continuous Measurement Procedures - Frequency and Duration
©Frequency Data - Continuous Data. Collecting Manding data because
we collect it on every opportunity.
©Duration Data - Continuous data. Recording how long a tantrum
occurred.
©Discontinuous Measurement Procedures - Skill Acquisition data
because it's only collected on the first response of the session; this is also
called Cold Probe Data. Other types include partial interval recording,
whole interval recording, and momentary time sampling.
©Partial Interval Recording - Discontinuous Data. This is used if a
behavior occurred at least once in a specified time interval.
©Whole Interval Recording - Discontinuous Data. This is used if a
behavior occurred during the entire duration of the timed interval.
©Momentary Time Sampling - Discontinuous Data. This would be when
you record data only every X amount of minutes.
, ©Permanent Product Recording Procedures - A 'card system' is often
used. These are permanent products because they're tangible things that
can be counted and measured to record progress, or to get the percentage
of correct responding with target and maintenance responses.
©Behavior and the environment in observable and measurable terms -
Ask, what does it look like? Hitting is a behavior. Things you can see are
behaviors. Frustration would not be a behavior because you cannot see
frustration.
©Behavior should be described in __________ and __________ terms. -
Observable and Measurable
©Preference Assessments - Formal ways to determine potential
reinforcers. In some ABA programs, clients fill out a potential reinforcer
survey. Otherwise, the therapist observes the child's motivation and takes
note in what they are engaging with to determine reinforcers.
©Assist with individuals assessment procedures - RBT's role is to assist
the BCBA by paring, collecting ABC data if necessary and collecting
assessment data based on the learner's profile (manding, listener skills,
motor imitation, etc).
©Assist with functional assessment procedures - RBT's role is to asst
BCBA; while the BCBA is doing a Functional Assessment Interview
