SPCE 630 LATEST 2026 EXAM QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS
GRADED A+
✔✔Which of the following research questions can be answered using single case
research design? - ✔✔-Is this intervention more effective than the current "baseline" or
"treatment" as "usual" condition? (e.g., Does intervention A reduce problem behavior for
this case?)
-Does adding B to Intervention A further reduce problem behavior for this case?
- Is intervention B or Intervention C more effective in reducing problem behavior for this
case?
✔✔Sequential introduction and withdrawal designs include which of the following: -
✔✔The repetition of the basic A-B comparisons within a single participant
✔✔Which of the following is true regarding a reversal design? - ✔✔Following
implementation of the intervention, the same procedure is then applied to an alternative
but incompatible behavior
✔✔Which of the following is true regarding A/B design: - ✔✔The A/B design measures
the dependent variable under baseline conditions and intervention and quickly assesses
the effect of an intervention
✔✔Demarco is a 4th grade student with a reading deficit. A direct skills assessment
indicates that Demarco's oral reading fluency is at a 1st grade level. The behavior
analyst wants to implement a reading intervention. She is considering a variety of
intervention components including repeated readings, listening passage review, and
error correction. To determine which intervention components to include, the BCBA
conducts a brief experimental analysis. To do so she should introduce the intervention
components in the following way: - ✔✔Any of the above is acceptable
✔✔Dr. Scheming wants to use a changing criterion design to implement a physical
activity program that is designed to incrementally increase physical activity individuals
with ASD. Which of the following is a guideline for using the changing criterion design
that Dr. Scheming should consider: - ✔✔All phases should be long enough to ensure
that successive changes in a therapeutic direction are naturally occurring and due to
historical, maturational, or measurement issues
✔✔One way to potentially enhance the scientific credibility of single case research
design is to include: - ✔✔Randomization
✔✔Reasons for considering statistical analysis in conjunction with visual analysis
include: - ✔✔Statistical control is needed for extraneous factors in the naturalistic
environment
