The roles and responsibilities of the RBT include which of the following? - All of the above
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
(deliver discrete trial instruction and incidental teaching, record data, and implement
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
behavior interventions plans as written as a BCBA)
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
ii True/False: An RBT can practice independently of a BCBA - False ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
ii Rate is... - the total count per a unit of time
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
ii Duration is... - the time from when the behavior begins to when it ends.
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
Latency is... - the time between the presentation of a stimulus and the occurrence of a
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
behavior
ii
Which of the following is a continuous recording method? - All of the above
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
(duration, rate/frequency, and latency) ii ii ii
calculate frequency/rate per hour and minute for a behavior that occurred 120 times over a
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
2 hour observation - 60 per hour, 1 per minute
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
partial-interval recording is... - When the behavior must occur at least once during the
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
interval to be recorded
ii ii ii ii
Whole-interval recording is.... - when the behavior must occur for the entire interval to be
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
recorded.
ii
Momentary time sampling is.... - when the behavior must be occurring at the end of the
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
interval to be recorded.
ii ii ii ii
Inter-response time is... - The time between the end of one instance of the behavior and
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
the beginning of the next occurrence of behavior.
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
which recording method would you expect to use when a target behavior is set to
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
increase? - whole-interval recording
ii ii ii ii ii ii
Which recording method would you expect to use when a target behavior is set to
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
decrease? - Partial-interval recording
ii ii ii ii ii ii
true or false? Partial interval recording has the tendency to under-estimate the frequency
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
of a target behavior while whole interval recording has the tendency to over-estimate the
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
frequency of the target behavior? - False
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
, Which of the following are examples of "permanent products" that can be used to collect
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
data using permanent product recording procedures. - Number of broken windows and
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
folded shirts
ii ii
True/False: permanent product recording is one of the lease cumbersome data recording
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
methods - True
ii ii ii ii ii
Choose the best operational definition for a tantrum - Any instance of the client crying and
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
hitting himself in the head with a closed fist which makes a sound that can be heard within
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
five feet. Instance must last longer than 30 seconds and are separated by 30 seconds of
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
non-occurrence.
ii
Define behavior: - The activity of living organisms; human behavior includes everything
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
that people do.
ii ii ii
define environment: - the conglomerate of real circumstances in which the organism or
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
references part of the organism exists; behavior cannot occur in the absence of
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
environment.
ii
List the four functions of behavior: - Social positive (attention/access), Social negative
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
(escaping), Automatic Positive (sensory stimulation), Automatic Negative (pain
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
attenuation)

A client gets out of his seat every time a demand is placed. When he gets out of his seat his
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
teacher says, "Oh you need a break", and does not follow through with her demand. This
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
client's out of seat behavior most likely serves what function? - Social negative (escape)
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii

ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
when he is playing with his favorite toys, during meal times, when you or someone else is
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
directly engaged with him, and even when he is by himself. One day mom brings the client
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
back from the dentist where he had to get 6 cavities filled. After this dentist appointment the
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
spitting stopped. What function does spitting most likely serve? - Automatic negative (pain
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
attenuation)

ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
ignore him but after around five minutes mom gives him back the item she removed and

the tantrum immediately stops. What function is most likely maintaining the tantrums? -
ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii ii
Social Positive (attention/access)
ii ii ii
A client hits other students in his class during work and break times. Each time he hits
