UPDATED STUDY GUIDE GRADED A+
Although most of you are preparing for the BACB certification exam,
please know that the material is based on the work of and his science
and philosophy of human behavior. There are occasions where we may
spend time on items that are no longer specifically required for the exam,
but we feel are required to be an excellent behavior scientist. -
✔✔✔ANSWER-B.F. Skinner
The is the only standardized form of data measurement in our science.
In this course, you will be charting your own behavior - specifically your
daily study of ABA terminology. - ✔✔✔ANSWER- Standard
Celeration Chart (SCC)
The Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB) is the single
governing body for professionals in the field of . The BACB was
established in 1998 to provide certification to professionals in an effort

,to establish minimum criteria to be a reactionary in the field. -
✔✔✔ANSWER-Applied Behavior Analysis
The standard celeration chart is the only standardized form of data in our
science. - ✔✔✔ANSWER-measurement
The word refers to a systematic approach for seeking and
organizing knowledge about the natural world. - ✔✔✔ANSWER-
systematic approach
Scientific investigations can yield information regarding the three
levels of understanding, which are , , and . - ✔✔✔ANSWER-
description, prediction, control.
What is the purpose for this systematic approach? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-- To
achieve a thorough understanding of the phenomena under study.
-To seek to discover the real truths. --so no
bias by groups or organizations
--or by the scientists themselves.
, studies produce a collection of facts about the observed events that can
be quantified, classified, and examined for possible relations with other
known facts.
(Can also suggest hypothesis, questions, or additional research ideas.) -
✔✔✔ANSWER-Description
The highest level of scientific understanding is . In this regard,
we specifically manipulate one event (the independent variable) in order
to produce a reliable change in another event (the dependent variable),
and the change in the dependent variable is not likely due to other
extraneous factors (known as confounding variables). This relationship
is referred to as a . -
✔✔✔ANSWER-Control; functional relationship
The is the event in which we observe change. -
✔✔✔ANSWER-dependent variable
What is a functional relationship? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-It exists when a
well-controlled experiment demonstrates that a specific change in one
event (the dependent variable) is reliably produced by specific
Page 3 of 42
, manipulations of another event (the independent variable), and that the
change in the dependent variable was unlikely to be the result of other
extraneous factors (confounding variables).
The is the event in which we manipulate. - ✔✔✔ANSWER- independent
variable
The "behavior" we wish to change in behavior analysis is known as the .
(2) - ✔✔✔ANSWER-dependent variable (2)
The "intervention" we employ in behavior analysis is known as the
. (2) - ✔✔✔ANSWER-independent variable (2)
When we apply an intervention, we are manipulating the .
The change we see in the target behavior is known as the .-
✔✔✔ANSWER-independent variable; dependent variable
A is demonstrated when we the independent
