RBT Mock Exam Practice with
Complete Solutions
Jessica, an RBT, is supporting a classroom and receives a request from the teacher to
help score the students math tests they wrote earlier in the afternoon. There are a total
of 31 math tests and the teacher says that she will mark 16 tests if Jessica can mark 15
of the tests. Jessica say "no problem" and scores exactly 15 tests. What type of
measurement was Jessica using: - ANS-Permanent product recording
Permanent product recording - ANS-Records the end product of a target behavior or
combination of target behaviors. RBT does not have to observe individual while they are
creating the permanent product.
Examples: painting, finished craft, worksheet, essay, etc.
Lisa, an RBT, is using trials-to-criterion to measure success which is defined as
achieving 10/10 on receptive identification of common nouns in the LEAST amount of
trials. She has four clients which she needs to compare data for: Paul took 23 days and
7 trials to achieve to score 10/10 on his receptive identification of common nouns.
Janelle took 7 days and 18 trials. Anthony took 12 days and 16 trials. Margot took 19
days and 5 trials. Which client reached the criterion in the LEAST amount of trails? -
ANS-Margot
An RBT is heading to the office and as soon as they get to the parking lot it begins to
rain. the RBT forgot their umbrella and decided to make a dash for it into the office. As
they were running, several droplets of rain land on their face. Rain landing on the RBT's
face is an example of: - ANS-not a behavior (if a dead man can do it, then it's not a
behavior)
An RBT is collecting baseline data for a functional life skills assessment for a 43 year
old male diagnosed with autism. The BCBA informs the RBT that standard backstop
error correction is used when teaching behavior chains. The RBT decides to collect a
true baseline of the skill of brushing teeth. During the baseline of the client, the client
performs step 4 incorrectly. The RBT should: - ANS-Ignore the error
why? Because they want to know if they can do it or not
baseline data - ANS-Can they do it or not? / yes or no?
An RBT is approached by their BCBA supervisor to help with the implementation of a
Functional Behavior Assessment. the BCBA has already reached out to the parents and
, obtained written informed consent and is ready to start the process. The BCBA explains
that the role of the RBT will be to just collect data. What components would make up the
Function Behavior Assessment? - ANS-Reinforcer assessment, direct observation,
functional analysis
A mother is extremely uspet and informs an RBT that every time their child goes to their
in-laws house for the weekend that Grandma just loads them up with sugar, let's them
do whatever they want and reinforces in inappropriate behavior. How should the RBT
document this objectively. - ANS-"Client spent weekend with another caregiver."
A BCBA tells an RBT that it is important to document ecological variables that may
affect a client. The BCBA says that medication changes are particularly important as
these can have a variety of positive and negative effects on behavior. The BCBA also
states that this is an ecological variable: - ANS-Not enough sleep
Client missed a meal
Client is ill
An RBT shares a client with 4 other RBTs and has a non-emergency clinical question
regarding programming. The RBT consults with the other RBTs as is not able to get a
clear answer. They determine that the only one person able to answer is their BCBA
supervisor. The RBT should: - ANS-Contact their supervisor with the question within 24
hours
An RBT has been working with a family for 6 years in a home. The family owns a huge
house and always has expensive cars in the driveway. The family is ending services
and is buys the RBT a name brand coffee thermos which retails for around $49.99.
Given the relationship and the family having lots of money, the RBT should: - ANS-Not
the accept the gift
An RBT is trying to determine the minimum amount of supervision they would require
each month if they were working a total of 80 behaviorsl analytic hours per month. The
RBT would require a minimum of of: - ANS-4 hours
An RBT is receiving behavioral skills training (BST) for a new interviewing program
which includes a response interruption and redirection component. The BCBA wants to
ensure that everyone on the team feels competent with their intervention. The BCBA
starts with providing instructions about the intervention. What next three steps should
the RBT expect: - ANS-Modeling, rehearsal, feedback
An RBT was setting up for her session and she set up the first set of programs so they
were ready for the client when they began the session, she read and reviewed the data
from last session. What else should she have done? - ANS-Determine what programs
she plans to work on during the session
