RBT Practice Quiz

Question 1 of 10

1. While recording data on a learner’s self-hitting behavior, an RBT noted 14 hits in a 2-hour session and documented it as 7 hits per hour. Which type of measurement method did he use?

  • Frequency
  • Count
  • Rate
  • Duration

Rate is the measurement of the frequency of a behavior within a specific time frame, expressed as occurrences per unit of time (e.g., 7 hits per hour).

2. Which of the following is considered an antecedent technique in behavior analysis?

  • DRA
  • Punishment
  • Task Analysis
  • Prompting

Prompting is an antecedent technique because it is provided before the behavior to guide or encourage the desired response.

3. Which of the following is NOT an essential component of a written skill acquisition plan?

  • Identify a skill to teach and create a goal
  • Modify the plan if necessary
  • Review data on average once every 2 months
  • Identify a measurement procedure for data collection

A skill acquisition plan requires consistent and frequent data review to ensure effectiveness and timely adjustments, not just once every 2 months.

4. When recording data on a line graph, on which axis should you place the date?

  • X-axis
  • Y-axis
  • D-axis
  • You would not enter a date on the graph

The X-axis typically represents time, including dates or sessions, while the Y-axis displays the measured behavior or data points.

5. A child learned to tie their shoes months ago and can still do it independently without recent practice sessions. What does this demonstrate?

  • Prompt Dependency
  • Maintenance
  • Generalization
  • Chaining

Maintenance refers to the ability to retain a learned skill over time, even without continuous practice or reinforcement.

6. In a token economy, what are the items or activities that the learner can exchange their tokens for called?

  • Primary Reinforcers
  • Extra Reinforcers
  • Tokens
  • Backup Reinforcer

Backup reinforcers are the items or activities for which tokens are exchanged, providing the actual reward that motivates behavior in a token economy system.

7. As part of a token economy, Emily receives a token every time she brushes her teeth before bed. Which principle of behavior is this an example of?

  • Negative Reinforcement
  • Positive Reinforcement
  • Punishment
  • None of the Above

Positive reinforcement involves adding a stimulus (a token) after a desired behavior (brushing teeth) to increase the likelihood of the behavior occurring again.

8. To determine how many times a student raises their hand, which measurement method should be used?

  • Duration
  • Percent of Occurrence
  • Inter-response Time (IRT)
  • Frequency

Frequency is the count of how many times a behavior occurs, making it the appropriate method for measuring discrete behaviors like hand-raising.

9. Milana wants to measure the amount of time that passes between occurrences of her client asking for a break. What type of data should she collect?

  • Duration
  • Response Latency
  • Inter-response Time (IRT)
  • Rate

Interresponse Time (IRT) measures the time between the end of one response and the beginning of the next, making it ideal for tracking the intervals between repeated behaviors.

10. Which of the following is considered a response prompt in behavior intervention?

  • Modeling
  • Verbal
  • Full Physical
  • All of the Above

Response prompts include modeling (demonstrating the behavior), full physical (physically guiding the behavior), and verbal prompts (providing spoken instructions). All of these help the learner correctly perform the desired behavior.
