update/guaranteed pass
The roles and responsibili es of the RBT include which of the following?
All of the above
(deliver discrete trial instruc on and incidental teaching, record data, and implement
behavior interven ons plans as wri en as a BCBA)
True/False: An RBT can prac ce independently of a BCBA
False
Rate is...
the total count per a unit of me
Dura on is...
the me from when the behavior begins to when it ends.
Latency is...
the me between the presenta on of a s mulus and the occurrence of a behavior
Which of the following is a con nuous recording method?
All of the above
(dura on, rate/frequency, and latency)
calculate frequency/rate per hour and minute for a behavior that occurred 120 mes over a
2 hour observa on
60 per hour, 1 per minute
par al-interval recording is...
When the behavior must occur at least once during the interval to be recorded
Whole-interval recording is....
when the behavior must occur for the en re interval to be recorded.
Momentary me sampling is....
when the behavior must be occurring at the end of the interval to be recorded.
Inter-response me is...
, The me between the end of one instance of the behavior and the beginning of the next
occurrence of behavior.
which recording method would you expect to use when a target behavior is set to increase?
whole-interval recording
Which recording method would you expect to use when a target behavior is set to decrease?
Par al-interval recording
true or false? Par al interval recording has the tendency to under-es mate the frequency of
a target behavior while whole interval recording has the tendency to over-es mate the
frequency of the target behavior?
False
Which of the following are examples of "permanent products" that can be used to collect
data using permanent product recording procedures.
Number of broken windows and folded shirts
True/False: permanent product recording is one of the lease cumbersome data recording
methods
True
Choose the best opera onal defini on for a tantrum
Any instance of the client crying and hi7ng himself in the head with a closed fist which
makes a sound that can be heard within five feet. Instance must last longer than 30 seconds
and are separated by 30 seconds of non-occurrence.
Define behavior:
The ac vity of living organisms; human behavior includes everything that people do.
define environment:
the conglomerate of real circumstances in which the organism or references part of the
organism exists; behavior cannot occur in the absence of environment.
List the four func ons of behavior:
Social posi ve (a en on/access), Social nega ve (escaping), Automa c Posi ve (sensory
s mula on), Automa c Nega ve (pain a enua on)
A client gets out of his seat every me a demand is placed. When he gets out of his seat his
teacher says, "Oh you need a break", and does not follow through with her demand. This
client's out of seat behavior most likely serves what func on?
