NBCOT Practice Exam 1 QUESTIONS COMPLETE
WITH 100% CORRECT ANSWERS 2026
An OT is preparing to evaluate a toddler who has upper extremity orthopedic concerns. How
will the OT MOST likely obtain the majority of initial assessment data?
A. Measurement tools that assess visual-motor skills
B. Dynamometer and pinch meter readings.
C. Observation of child during activities in the child-care center.
D. Functional independence measures.
C. Observation of child during activities in the child-care center.
Through observation of the child during child-care center activities, the OT can collect
information about the child's motor performance skills and participation in activities that
require upper extremity/hand skill. Naturalistic observation is a method of ecological
assessment, which is "a primary mechanism for obtaining data relevant to the child's
performance context..... Skilled observation of child performing a functional task offers.....
important information about the child's performance". Answers A, B, ad D are all appropriate
choices after the child is old enough for these assessments.
During an initial evaluation, the OT suspects that a child has somatodyspraxia. In what area
should the OT focus the evaluation?
A. Ability to print or write.
B. Reading competency.
C. Math calculations.
D. New motor task planning.
D. New motor task planning.
"Somatodyspraxia is described as a deficit in learning new motor skills, planning new motor
actions, and generalizing motor plans." Inability to print or write (answer A) is termed
,"dysgraphia." The term "dyslexia" (answer B) means dysfunction in reading. Inability to
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
perform mathematics (answer C) is known as "dyscalculia"
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
An OT working in a long-term care facility needs to evaluate the long-term memory of a
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
resident. Which of the following methods is BEST for evaluating memory or personally
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
experienced events (declarative memory)?
J6 J6 J6 J6
A. Show the person a series of objects and ask him to recall the objects within 60 seconds.
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
B. Ask the individual how he spent New Year's/
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
C. Have the individual state the place, date, and time.
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
D. Ask the client to remember to bring a specific item to the next therapy session
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
B Ask the individual how he spent New Year's
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
"Declarative memory is one aspect of long term memory and includes conscious memory
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
for events, knowledge or facts". It is commonly assessed through verbal interviews and
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
informal testing such as asking a question about an individual's recall of personal
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
events (answer B).
J6 J6 J6
Working memory refers to "the temporary storage of inforamtion while one is working with it
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
or attending to it" (answer A). "Prospective memory involves the ability to remember
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
intentions or activities that will be required in the future" (answer D). Knowing the date,
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
place, and time is indicative of orientation (answer C).
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
A child avoids playground equipment that requires her feet to be off the ground. What does
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
this behavior MOST likely indicate?
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
A. Difficulty modulating proprioception.
J6 J6 J6
B. Somatodyspraxia
J6
C. Gravitational insecurity
J6 J6
D. Bilateral integration/sequencing deficit.
J6 J6 J6
C. Gravitational insecurity.
J6 J6
Gravitational insecurity is described as "fear response to movement". The child easily
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
experiences a fear of falling and prefers to keep her feet firmly on the ground. Tactile
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
defensiveness (answer A) is a term used to describe discomfort with various textures and
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
with unexpected touch. Somatodyspraxia (answer B) has is "foundation in somatosensory
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
(e.g. primarily tactile but also proprioceptive) discrimination deficits, which interfere with
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
the development of body scheme and awareness". Bilateral integration and sequencing
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
deficits are related to "poor vestibular-propioceptive discrimination, which interferes with
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
the ability to coordinate, sequence, and execute motor actions quickly and efficiently".
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
,When the OT suspects tactile defensiveness as a rationale for a child's challenges, in what
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
area of participation should the OT focus on FIRST?
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
A. Play behavior
J6 J6
B. Dressing habits
J6 J6
C. Social skills
J6 J6
D. Leisure interests
J6 J6
B. Dressing habits
J6 J6
Children with tactile defensiveness are "bothered by tactile aspects of daily living
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
activities.... specific types of clothing
J6 specific textures materials". The child may be
J6 J6 J6 J6 J 6 J 6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
bothered by certain
J6 J6 J6
textures or avoid wearing turtlenecks, socks, or shoes. Conversely, some children may
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
never take off their shoes to avoid tactile stimulation. Play behavior (answer A), social
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
skills (answer
J6 J6
C), and the choice of hobbies (answer D) could be affected secondarily, as a result of
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
intolerance to certain textures or human touch. Knowledge of the child's dressing habits will
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
give the OT key information at the start of the evaluation process.
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
An OT is working with an individual with schizophrenia who is in the process of preparing
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
to move from a state hospital to a group home. During a baking group, the client
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
becomes agitated and leaves the room when another client uses the electric hand
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
mixer to mix the cake batter, and again when two clients begin to argue loudly about
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
which type of icing to use. How would the OT BEST describe the behavior?
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
A. Low registration
J6 J6
B. Sensory avoiding
J6 J6
C. Sensation seeking
J6 J6
D. A hearing impairment
J6 J6 J6
B. Sensory avoiding
J6 J6
The individual's actions are indicative of sensor avoiding behavior, characterized by a low
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
threshold to stimuli perceived as noxious, followed by an active response such as leaving
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
the room. Individuals with sensory avoiding behavior may "become distressed in situations in
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
which they cannot control the environment" and "do well in low stimulus situation or
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
settings that others find dull". An individual with low registration (answer A), sensory
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
seeking behavior
J6 J6
(answer C), or a hearing impairment (answer D) would not have difficult with the auditory
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
stimulation caused by the roar of the mixer or loud voices.
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
, During a self-care evaluation of an individual who recently sustained a brain injury, the
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
OT instructs the individual to comb his hair immediately after he washes his face. The
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
individual washes his face quickly, but then the therapist must give him several
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
reminders to comb his hair. The OT is MOST likely to identify this as a deficit in what
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
area?
J6
A. Working memory
J6 J6
B. Judgment

"Working memory is the temporary storage of information while one is working with it or
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
attending to it. It includes the ability to recall information immediately after exposure. It
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
allows one to focus conscious attention and keeps track of information as one is
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
performing an
J6 J6
activity". This individual's inability to comb is hair without reminders suggests a deficit in
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
working memory (answer A). Judgment (answer B), the ability to make realistic and safe
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
decisions based on available environmental information, would not be needed for this task.
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
Because the person performed the first request, hearing (answer C) would seem to be intact.
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
Abstraction (answer D) is the ability to extrapolate information from an idea to generalize
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
to another situation and would not be needed to follow this direction.

A supermarket employee with obsessive-compulsive disorder takes an hour to stock 24
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
soup cans on the shelf because once he has placed the cans on the shelf, he removes
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
them and starts over, stating that "all labels were not lines up exactly in the same
J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6 J6
direction." Which of the following methods would MOST effectively evaluate the
