RBT Exam Study Guide Questions and
Answers | Latest Update | 2024/2025 |
Rated A+

What is a task analysis in ABA, and how is it used?


✔✔ A task analysis breaks down complex skills into smaller, manageable steps to teach the skill

systematically.




How can RBTs use errorless learning to help clients acquire new skills?


✔✔ RBTs can use errorless learning by providing immediate prompts to prevent mistakes and

gradually fading prompts as the client masters the skill.




What is the purpose of using token economies in ABA?


✔✔ Token economies provide a system of reinforcement where tokens are earned for desired

behaviors and can be exchanged for preferred items or activities.




How does shaping help in behavior development?


✔✔ Shaping reinforces successive approximations of a desired behavior, allowing gradual

progress toward a more complex target behavior.

,What are operational definitions, and why are they important in ABA?


✔✔ Operational definitions clearly describe specific behaviors in measurable and observable

terms, ensuring consistency in data collection and intervention.




How does non-contingent reinforcement (NCR) function in behavior reduction?


✔✔ NCR delivers reinforcement independently of the client's behavior to reduce the motivation

to engage in problem behaviors.




What is generalization, and how do RBTs promote it?


✔✔ Generalization is the transfer of learned skills to new environments, people, or contexts, and

RBTs promote it by practicing skills in various settings.




How can pairing be used to establish a positive relationship with a client?


✔✔ Pairing involves associating the RBT with positive reinforcement to build a trusting and

motivating relationship with the client.




What role does maintenance play in the learning process?




2

, ✔✔ Maintenance ensures that the skills learned by the client continue to be used over time, even

after intensive teaching has ended.




How do RBTs implement differential reinforcement to reduce challenging behavior?


✔✔ RBTs use differential reinforcement by providing reinforcement for an alternative,

incompatible, or lower rate of a problem behavior while withholding reinforcement for the

problem behavior itself.




What is the difference between continuous and intermittent reinforcement schedules?


✔✔ Continuous reinforcement provides reinforcement after every occurrence of a behavior,

while intermittent reinforcement provides reinforcement only after some occurrences.




What is behavior momentum, and how can it be applied in ABA?


✔✔ Behavior momentum involves asking a client to complete easy, high-probability tasks to

build compliance before introducing more difficult tasks.




How can RBTs use discrete trial training (DTT) to teach skills?


✔✔ DTT involves breaking down skills into discrete, teachable components with structured

teaching trials that include a prompt, response, and consequence.
