2023 -2024 BCBA TEST WITH FULL (200) QUESTIONS AND CORRECT CLARIFIED ANSWERS COMPLETE A+. What are the common attitudes and assumptions of science? - ANSWER - determinism, empiricism, experimentation, replication, parsimony, and philosophic doubt Explain the difference between EAB and ABA - ANSWER - EAB involves basic research, reporting only on basic behavior experiments whose primary goal is to discover and clarify the basic principles of behavior and determine functional relations between behavior and controlling variables. ABA involves applied resea rch and has the goal of creating a technology for improving socially significant behavior and to determine functional relations between socially significant behavior and controlling variables. Describe the methodological features of EAB - ANSWER - rate of response is the 2023 -2024 BCBA TEST WITH FULL (200) QUESTIONS AND CORRECT CLARIFIED ANSWERS COMPLETE A+. most common dependent variable; repeated or continuous measurement is made of carefully defined response classes; within -subject experimental comparisons are used instead of grou p designs; visual analysis of graphed data is preferred over statistical inference; a description of functional relations is valued over formal theory testing. 2023 -2024 BCBA TEST WITH FULL (200) QUESTIONS AND CORRECT CLARIFIED ANSWERS COMPLETE A+. 5 functions/phases of behavioral assessment - ANSWER - a) screening, b) defining and quantifying problems or goals, c) pinpointing the target behavior(s), d) monitoring progress, e) following up 4 main methods for obtaining assessment information - ANSWER - interviews, checklists, tests, and direct observation What is an ecological assessment? - ANSWER - gathering a large amount of information about the person and the environments in which that person lives and works; this type of assessment is neither necessary nor warranted for most ABA programs What is react ivity? - ANSWER - the effects of an assessment procedure on the behavior being assessed, most likely during direct observation when the individual is aware they are being observed What questions should be asked to determine the social significance and 2023 -2024 BCBA TEST WITH FULL (200) QUESTIONS AND CORRECT CLARIFIED ANSWERS COMPLETE A+. habilitative (adjustment, competence) value of a potential target behavior? - ANSWER - Will the behavior be reinforced in the person's daily life ? Is the behavior a necessary prerequisite for a useful skill? Will the behavior increase the person's access to environments in which other important behaviors can be learned or used? Will the behavior predispose others to interact with the person in a more appropriate and supportive manner? Is the behavior a cusp or pivotal behavior? Is the behavior age appropriate ? Does the behavior represent the actual problem or is it only indirectly related? What are the two basic effects that a stimulus change has on behavior? - ANSWER - 1. an immediate but temporary effect of increasing or decreasing the
