BCBA 5th edition task listDescription - correct answer is a collection of facts about an observed event. Prediction - correct answer repeated observations reveal that observing other events can consistently result in accurately anticipating an outcome Control - correct answer a specific change in one event can be reliably produced by scientific manipulation or variables. Radical behaviorism - correct answer is a branch of behaviorism that includes thoughts and feelings in addition to the observable events Generality/Generalization - correct answer Behavior change that lasts over time, appears in environment other than the environment which it was taught and spreads to other behaviors not targeted by the intervention Effective - correct answer behavior that changes in a practical manner that results in clinical or social significance Technological - correct answer all procedures of an intervention, data and results of an experiment or study are cleared outlined in detail so they can be understood, replicated and implemented by anyone Applied - correct answer the commitment of effecting improvements in people's behaviors to enhance their quality of life.
