CBT competency exam
Describe how to prepare for data collection - correct answer Have visuals and data
sheets organized and ready for data collection. Prepare your workspace in advance.
Make sure to acquire necessary tools (clipboard, clicker , notepad)
Implement continuous measurement procedures (frequency, duration) - correct answer
Frequency- the number of times a behavior occurs during a time span. Duration- how
long the behavior lasts from start to finish. (typically use frequency at Sendan)
Partial interval recording - correct answer An occurrence of behavior is recorded if it
takes place at any time during the observation interval; it does not need to span the
entire interval. (screaming); tends to overestimate behavior
momentary time sampling - correct answer an occurrence of the target behavior is
recorded if it occurs at the moment the interval ends. This behavior tracking method is
useful for behaviors that can persist for awhile (e.g., in-seat behavior, stereotypy, and
nail biting). Should be a pre-determined increment (eg. every 3 minutes)
whole interval recording - correct answer the target behavior must span the complete
length of the observation interval. An example would be on-task behavior. Tends to
underestimate behavior
Implement permanent product recording measurement procedures - correct answer
Any environmental effect that results from a behavior can be measured as a permanent
product.Designed to track an enduring outcome of behavior (number of math problems
completed, postcard made, coloring page finished)
Enter data and update graphs - correct answer Be able to summarize and graph data
within 15-20 minutes, write an objective and behavioral summary of major session
points, use a program checklist. Sendan uses line graphs.
Define and provide examples of behavior and the environment in observable and
measurable terms. - correct answer Behavior must be operationally defined.
Describing behavior as simply behavior allows it to be observed, and therefore
measured. ABC narrative data format can help define behaviors
single stimulus preference assessments - correct answer A stimulus is presented and
the person's reaction to it is noted. May best be suited for individuals with trouble
selecting from two or more stimuli.
, paired stimulus preference assessment - correct answer Each trial in the paired
choice preference assessment consists of the simultaneous presentation of two stimuli.
Each stimulus is matched with all other stimuli in the set. The observer notes which
stimulus the earner chooses. The stimuli are rank-ordered in terms of high, medium,
and low preference based on how many times a stimuli is chosen. Also Known As:
Forced Choice.
Free operant observations - correct answer Observing and recording what activities
the target person engages in when she can choose during a period of unrestricted
access to numerous activities.
multiple stimulus without replacement (MSWO) - correct answer an individual makes
choices between multiple stimuli, and each chosen stimulus is subsequently eliminated
from the choice array.
multiple stimulus with replacement (MSW) - correct answer an individual makes
choices between multiple stimuli, and after a choice is made the stimulus is
subsequently replaced before trialed again.
Describe how you would assist with individualized assessment procedures (e.g.,
curriculum-based, developmental, social skills.) - correct answer Conduct probes to
gain an understanding of the child's abilities. May involve running discrete trials without
reinforcement. (eg. what is this? about different community members to see what the
child knows)
Assist with functional assessment procedures. - correct answer A CBT may be asked
to complete ABC narrative data as part of the assessment. Typically, the behavior
specialist will be responsible for gathering information about the client and behavior
from other sources such as interviews with parents, peers, and/or teachers. Report, IEP
and other document reviews represent additional indirect methods of information
gathering.
Identify the essential components of a written skill acquisition plan. - correct answer
program name (skill being targeted), materials needed, SD, operational definitions of
correct and incorrect responses (CR, IR), consequences for CR and IR, how data is
collected, prompt levels on the way to mastery, mastery criterion
Describe how to prepare for the session as required by the skill acquisition plan -
correct answer Read and review the program, look over current data sheet, gather
necessary materials, be comfortable with BIP and how to record novel behaviors
Rules of reinforcer effectiveness - correct answer delivered contingent upon desired
behavior, delivered immediately after behavior occurred, reinforcer must be of
worthwhile amount, satiation and deprivation
