True/False: An RBT can False
practice independently of
a BCBA
Rate is... the total count per a unit of time
Duration is... the time from when the behavior begins to when it ends.
Latency is... the time between the presentation of a stimulus and the
occurrence of a behavior
Which of the following is a All of the above
continuous recording (duration, rate/frequency, and latency)
method?
calculate frequency/rate per 60 per hour, 1 per minute
hour and minute for a
behavior that occurred 120
times over a 2 hour
observation
partial-interval recording is... When the behavior must occur at least once during the
interval to be recorded
, when the behavior must occur for the entire interval to be

recorded.
Momentary time sampling when the behavior must be occurring at the end of the
is.... interval to be recorded.
Inter-response time is... The time between the end of one instance of the behavior and
the beginning of the next occurrence of behavior.
which recording method whole-interval recording
would you expect to use
when a target behavior is set
to increase?
Which recording method Partial-interval recording
would you expect to use
when a target behavior is
set to decrease?
true or false? Partial interval False
recording has the tendency
to underestimate the
frequency of a target
behavior while whole
interval recording has the
tendency to overestimate
the frequency of the target
behavior?
Which of the following are Number of broken windows and folded shirts
examples of "permanent
products" that can be used
to collect data using
permanent product
recording procedures.
, True
True/False: permanent
product recording is one of
the lease cumbersome data
recording methods
Choose the best operational Any instance of the client crying and hitting himself in the
definition for a tantrum 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 activity 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 functions of Social positive (attention/access), Social negative
behavior: (escaping), Automatic Positive (sensory stimulation),
Automatic Negative (pain attenuation)
Social negative (escape)
A client gets out of his seat
every time 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 function?
