RBT OFFICIAL SKILLS INVENTORY 2026
COMPLETE COMPETENCY GOALS AND
PERFORMANCE HISTORY REFERENCE
CATALOGUE
Frequency. Ans: Count of each instance
⫸ Duration. Ans: Time spent engaged in single instance of target
behavior
⫸ Latency. Ans: Time from onset of stimulus to onset of response
⫸ discontinuous measurement procedures. Ans: Recording a sample
of instances of the target behavior according to predetermined
schedule (e.g., momentary time sampling, partial interval, etc.)
⫸ Partial interval recording. Ans: Recording if the target behavior
occurred at any point in time in a predetermined interval
⫸ permanent product recording procedures. Ans: Recording
performance of a skill based on observing a finished product, not the
actual performance of the skill
⫸ preference assessments. Ans: Conducting formal assessment(s) to
determine client preferences for various items/activities and/or
, implementing informal "preference checks" throughout sessions to
ensure motivation remains high
⫸ Multiple Stimulus Without Replacement. Ans: Items are presented
in an array and the client is instructed to pick one and given time to
engage with that item. After the engagement interval, the array is
presented again without the already selected item(s) and the client
selects again. Process continues until all items are chosen or client
stops choosing items. The FULL array is presented 3-5 times and
selection percentage is calculated to give preference gradient.
⫸ ABC Data. Ans: Data recorded on the immediate antecedent and
consequence for observed instances of target behavior
⫸ Rating Scale. Ans: Structured assessment form with questions
regarding various functions of challenging behavior used to identify
likely function(s) to be completed by primary caregivers and others
familiar with client
⫸ Reinforcement. Ans: The process of providing a reinforcer
contingent on the client engaging in a behavior that you want to
increase
⫸ Reinforcer. Ans: A stimulus (item, activity, statement, etc.) that,
when provided immediately after a response, results in an increase in
the future frequency of that response
