RBT Mock Exam UPDATED ACTUAL
Questions and CORRECT Answers
Cumulative records - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Data never decreases in a cumulative
record; an increasing slope indicates occurrence of the target behavior, while a flat slope
indicates periods of no occurrences of the target behavior
Momentary time sampling as a data collection method - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Every 3
minutes, Sally counts the number of students playing together vs. the number of students
playing by themselves. At the end of a 30 minute observation period, Sally counts the percent
of social engagement for all students by averaging the score on each interval.
Discontinuos data collection - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Data that is taken of some sample
of the behavior, not each and every instance of the behavior of interest.
Continuous data collection - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Data that is taken on each and every
instance of behavior.
Types of Discontinuous Data Collection - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Momentary Time
Sampling - .
Partial Interval Recording
Whole Interval Recording
Whole Interval Recording - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Whole Interval Recording -
recording data (YES or NO) if the behavior occurs for the ENTIRETY of an observation
interval. For example, if the behavior occurs for 59 seconds out of a 60 second observation
interval, you would not score that interval! That seems pretty arbitrary, but it has it's benefits -
imagine a scenario where you are attempting to take data on many learners who are supposed
to be working on independent work. These same learners must raise their hand if they'd like
to get up from their table work. You could easily task a single teacher with taking WIR data
on 5 or even 10 kids, and if you're interested in seeing an increase in their in-seat, on-task
behavior, this would be a conservative measure of those behaviors -- a graph with a score of
, 100% would truly represent mastery, as even a single second of out-of-seat behavior would
cost them an entire interval's score!
Partial Interval Recording - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- recording data (YES or NO) if the
behavior occurs for any part of a given interval. For example, if the behavior occurs for 1
second or for the entire interval, you would still score it as a single "yes" for that interval. As
a result, this type of recording tends to over-estimate behavior, which may be a good thing,
depending on what you're trying to measure. For example, if you're teaching someone not to
bite their teachers, even 1 second of biting could be pretty painful and disruptive. Therefore,
you'd be happy with overestimation as it would help guide treatment decisions in the right
direction.
Momentary Time Sampling - - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- recording data (YES or NO)
regarding the occurrence of a behavior at a specific moment in time. This means that if the
behavior was occurring for the entirety of the interval, but just happened to briefly stop at the
point in time in which we observe the behavior, we might still mark 'no.' This is one of the
obvious drawbacks of this data collection scheme. One of the up-sides is that it's relatively
resource unintensive - a single data collector could easily take data on many individuals
simultaneously without becoming too overloaded.
Tommy walks up to Sally and says "Hey, do you know the time?" and Sally responds, "It is 3
o'clock!"
Sally's verbal behavior, in this instance, would be best classified as a what type of operant? -
CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- Tommy's behavior is an example of a mand: he is requesting
information, or more specifically, what time it is.
Sally's behavior is an example of an intraverbal: she is responding to Tommy's mand by
providing the answer.
Continuous data collection method - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔- capture every possible
occurence of a behavior of interest. Some of the benefits of continuous measurement systems
is they capture every instance of the behavior, therefore, are much more accurate than
discontinuous data collection systems.
