BCBA Exam practice questions with correct answer

Dependent Group Contingency - correct answer The group's reinforcer is dependent on the behavior of an individual or small group of individuals. Independent Group Contingency - correct answer All members of a group are offered a contingency, but only the individual's who meet the contingency earn the reinforcement. Interdependent Group Contingency - correct answer In order for the group to earn reinforcement, all of the individuals in a group must meet the criterion of the established contingency. Response Prompts - correct answer Act on the response itself, NOT on the antecedent stimuli (e.g. verbal, model, physical prompt). Stimulus Prompts - correct answer Act on the antecedent stimuli, NOT on the response (e.g. movement, position, redundancy). Differential Reinforcement of Incompatible Behavior (DRI) - correct answer A procedure in which behavior cannot be emitted simultaneously with the challenging behavior (e.g. the behavior being reinforced and the behavior on extinction cannot occur at the same time). Differential Reinforcement of Alternate Behavior (DRA) - correct answer A procedure in which one reinforces occurrence of behavior that provides a desirable alternative to the problem behavior; alternate and challenging behavior are not incompatible. Differential Negative Reinforcement of Incompatible/Alternate Behavior (DNRI/DNRA) - correct answer Terms used to refer to differential reinforcement procedures that specifically involve escape as the reinforcer. Differential Reinforcement of Other Behavior (DRO) - correct answer A procedure in which reinforcement is contingent on the absence of the challenging
