CBMT Exam Study Guide: Latest Updated A+ Guide
Solution
data-based model - ANSWERAn approach based on information retrieved through
experimentation or direct observation
reversal design (ABAB design) - ANSWERA single subject, applied behavior analysis
design which generally involves observing behavior during baseline, treatment, a
return to baseline, and treatment reapplied.
Psychodynamic treatment model - ANSWERBy Freud; unconscious material is root of
problems, focuses on analysis of thought; free association and Rorschach test
Biomedical treatment model - ANSWERbiological factors are the underlying cause of
disorders
successive approximations - ANSWERBehaviors which gradually resemble the target
behavior or terminal objective
schedule of reinforcement - ANSWERThe behavioral requirements for a reinforcing
stimulus to be delivered. Schedules may be fixed or variable based on interval or
ratio criteria
Fading - ANSWERThe gradual removal of all explicit prompts or cues in an attempt to
maintain the behavior on its own
Holistic theory - ANSWEREvaluation of emotional, physical, spiritual, psychological,
and social dimensions because all make up the whole person
Behavioral treatment model - ANSWERBy Skinner. All behaviors are learned, so all
behaviors can be unlearned or replaced by new behaviors. Task analysis and
reinforcement schedule
reinforcement schedule - ANSWERfixed ratio, variable ratio, fixed interval, variable
interval
classical conditioning - ANSWERPavlovian technique pairing neutral stimulus with a
meaningful stimulus
randomized group design - ANSWERExperimental design that randomly assigns
subjects to treatment or control conditions to compare performance
occipital lobe - ANSWERRegion of the cerebral cortex that processes vision and
perception
monoplegia - ANSWERparalysis of one limb
, paraplegia - ANSWERparalysis of both legs and the lower part of the body
quadriplegia - ANSWERparalysis of all four limbs
hallucination - ANSWERPerception of sensory input, often sounds or tactile
sensations, which are not occurring in reality
Frequency recording - ANSWERRecords number of times a target behavior occurs
Duration Recording - ANSWERRecording technique that measures how long a
particular behavior lasts during a given period
Individualized Education Program (IEP) - ANSWERIndividualized plan for children
with disabilities who qualify for special education services; functions as blueprint for
determining best possible educational program for each child
Primary aging - ANSWERSystematic, genetically determined decline in efficiency of
body's organ systems
accountability - ANSWERProcess by which one is responsible and answerable for
obligation to a set of constituenies
parallel play - ANSWERCharacterizes a stage of development in which very young
children will play beside each other but not engage in social interaction
discrimination - ANSWERAbility to tell difference between stimuli
DAP - ANSWERSandardized form of note taking. Data, assessment, plan
SOAP - ANSWERStandardized form of note taking. Subjective, objective, assessment,
plan
MMPI - ANSWERThe Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory. Assesses
personality traits and psychopathology. Primarily used for diagnosis
Countertransference - ANSWERThe therapist projection of own feelings, ideas, and
desires about other people and/or things onto the client
Down Syndrome - ANSWERCongenital abnormality of trisomy 21 gene (extra
chromosome) resulting in developmental disability and physical abnormalities
Hyperactivity - ANSWERIncreased and/or excessive muscular activity
positive reinforcement - ANSWERthe presentation of a stimulus resulting in an
increase in the behavior it follows
