RBT Practice Exam 4 | Prepare for RBT Certification Test

This is our fourth RBT practice exam containing 15 challenging multiple-choice questions that boost your confidence for the final RBT exam. This mock test will help you identify knowledge gaps, and ensure you’re fully prepared for the RBT certification exam.

1. Thomas hits his peers at pre-school to get their attention. His team implements a procedure where everyone limits attention toward Kevin when he hits his peers. Instead, he receives verbal praise when engaging in behaviors that keep his hands busy. Clapping, playing with legos, etc. What type of procedure does this entail?

Differential reinforcement of alternative behaviors

Differential reinforcement of low levels of behaviors

Differential reinforcement of other behaviors

Differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors

2. How can a value-altering effect of a motivating operation be best described?

A stimulus that decreases the likelihood of a behavior occurring in the future.

A momentary increase or decrease in the frequency of a behavior that has a learning history of producing some stimulus as a consequence in the past.

A momentary increase or decrease in the effectiveness of a stimulus as a punisher or reinforcer.

A stimulus that increases the likelihood of a behavior occurring in the future.

3. During _ _ _ stimuli are modified or manipulated so the desired behavior has a higher provability to occur and the contrary for undesired behaviors.

Antecedent Modifications

Consequence Manipulations

DRA

DRO

4. During _ _ _ a behavior that is both desirable and topographically incompatible with the target behavior is reinforced.

Differential Reinforcement of Alternative Behaviors

Differential Reinforcement of Other Behaviors

Differential Reinforcement of Low Rates

Differential Reinforcement of Incompatible Behaviors

5. When using extinction, you:

Withhold reinforcement for a behavior that was previously reinforced

Provide differential reinforcement

Ignore the client

Ignore all inappropriate behaviors

6. With _ _ _, if the problem behavior did not occur during a predetermined time interval, a reinforcer is delivered; any instance of the problem behavior during that interval resets the interval and postpones reinforcement.

Differential Reinforcement of Other Behaviors

Differential Reinforcement of Alternative Behaviors

Differential Reinforcement of Incompatible Behaviors

Differential Reinforcement of High Rates

7. People sometimes react with physical aggression and property destruction when they are presented with demands or are pursued for compliance. In such situations doing this is likely to reduce many severe episodes in an emergency situation.

Decrease (remove) demands

Emergency (crisis) strategies

Reset the interval (stop and reset)

New or novel

8. In a DRO, you reinforce:

All behaviors other than the behavior targeted for reduction

All behaviors noncontingently

An incompatible behavior

More appropriate alternative behaviors

9. A client is reinforced every other time she selects a card from the PECS board. Ten seconds of attention is provided to the client regardless of the card she selects. Which schedule of reinforcement was used in this scenario?

FR4

FR2

FI2

VR2

10. Stimulus changes that occur right after a behavior are referred to as:

Consequences

Extinction

Antecedents

Reinforcements

11. During a session, a client was presented with a math exercise. The client read the question, answered it, and received 3 points for answering correctly. Identify the discriminative stimulus in this example.

Receiving 3 points

The question

Answering correctly

No SD could be identified in this example

12. Which of the following variables would not be necessary to communicate with your BCBA immediately?

Your client became ill during the session, so you ended the session 45 minutes early

Your client’s caregivers reported concerns about their progress and another RBT’s performance

Your client mastered one of their programs

Your client started a new medication

13. Fixed Ratio 1 (FR1) is mainly used to _ _ _ and it is the same as _ _ _

Maintain Behaviors; Continuous Measurement

Maintain Behaviors; Continuous Reinforcement

Strengthen new Behaviors; Continuous Reinforcement

Teach new Behaviors; Continuous Measurement

14. Positive Reinforcement, Positive Punishment, Negative Reinforcement, and Negative Punishment are _ _ _

Consequence Manipulation interventions

Antecedent Modification interventions

Functions of behavior

Interventions used in Classical Conditioning

15. What is the differential reinforcement procedure called where all behaviors except one specific behavior are reinforced?

Differential Reinforcement of Low Rates (DRL)

Differential Reinforcement of Incompatible Behavior (DRI)

Differential Reinforcement of Other Behavior (DRO)

Differential Reinforcement of Alternative Behavior (DRA)
