Correct
Ethical **Correct Ans**- Pertaining to right and wrong in conduct. Being in
accordance with the rules or standards for right conduct or practice
Feedback and Reflection **Correct Ans**- Respond appropriately to feedback
and maintain or improve performance. Take feedback and be a reflective
practitioner.
Communication **Correct Ans**- Communication with stakeholders as
authorized.
Follow protocol of how to communicate.
Communicate effectively with all team members.
Professional Boundaries **Correct Ans**- Avoid dual relationships, conflicts of
interest, social media contacts. Always take notes.
Client Dignity **Correct Ans**- Be respectful and thoughtful about the client's
needs and wants.
Never do or say anything to cause embarrassment to the client.
Do not do something in front of your client that you would not do if working with a
typical developing child.
How to Prepare for Data Collection **Correct Ans**- 1. Read data from last
session
2. Prepare material and programs for current session based on data from last
session.
3. Determine what programs you plan to work on during the session.
4. Gather materials for those programs.
5. Set up the first set of programs so they are ready for the client when you begin
your session.
The Role of the RBT in the Service Delivery System **Correct Ans**- Implement
measurement, assessment, skill acquisition, behavior reduction, documentation and
reporting, and maintain professional conduct in the scope of the practice under the
direct supervision of a BCBA or BCaBA.
RBT Assisting with Individual Assessment Procedures **Correct Ans**- The RBT
can interview stakeholders, gather baseline data by observing the client's behaviors
in his/her natural environment, or probe client by asking them to perform a task we
are unsure they can perform without providing assistance.
Dealing with Stakeholders **Correct Ans**- The RBT should only communicate
with stakeholders as authorized by the supervisor. Any specific questions should be
deferred to the BCBA or BCaBA. If you do communicate you must be objective, use
behavioral language, avoid speculation, stick to topic appropriate for an RBT.
,Assist Training Stakeholders **Correct Ans**- RBT can assist with training
stakeholders by giving them instruction, modeling, rehearsal, and feedback with
regard to behavioral skills training.
Report Other Variables **Correct Ans**- illness, relocation or change in
medication.
Components of a Written Behavior Plan **Correct Ans**- 1. Identify, describe,
create a goal for a behavior in observable terms.
2. Assess antecedent/consequence that may maintain behavior.
3. Identify hypothesis of function of behavior.
4. Identify possible replacement behaviors.
5. Select and implement antecedent/consequence based interventions.
6. Create crisis intervention plan.
7. Implementation, modification, generalization and maintenance procedures.
Skill Acquisition Plan **Correct Ans**- 7 Components
1. Identify the skill deficit
2. Create a goal to address the deficit
3. Establish a data measurement system
4. Take baseline data (Assess current skill level)
5. Select and implement an acquisition procedure.
6. Collect data to assess effectiveness of the procedure.
7. Modify existing plan based on assessment data. (Modify, if necessary) to
maintain/increase effectiveness)
Prepare for Skill Acquisition Plan **Correct Ans**- 1. Determine what occurred
last session to decide where to start.
2. Select skill acquisition procedures to complete during session.
3. Prepare materials you will need for the skill acquisition (including data collection
protocols).
5 Dimensions we can Shape **Correct Ans**- 1. Topography
2. Frequency
3. Latency
4. Duration
5. Amplitude/Intensity
Applied Behavior Analysis **Correct Ans**- The science in which tactics derived
from the principles of behavior are applied systematically to improve socially
significant behavior and experimentation is used to identify the variables
responsible for behavior change.
The scientific study of principles of learning and behavior.
Behavior **Correct Ans**- An activity of living organisms.
What an individual does (how they respond in the situation).
It is observable and measurable.
Response **Correct Ans**- Specific instance of behavior.
4 types of Responses:
, 1. Correct
2. Incorrect
3. Non-Response
4. Prompted
Respondent Behavior **Correct Ans**- Untaught or unconditioned responses.
Reflex.
Respondent Conditioning **Correct Ans**- New stimuli can acquire the ability to
elicit responses.
Occurs through pairing of two stimuli.
Stimulus - Stimulus Pairing (S - S)
Unconditioned Stimulus **Correct Ans**- A stimulus that elicits an
unconditioned response.
i.e. Food is an unconditioned stimulus for a hungry animal and salivation is the
unconditioned response.
Unconditioned Response **Correct Ans**- A behavior that occurs naturally due
to a given stimulus.
i.e. Dogs salivating in the presence of food; yelping upon being bitten by an insect.
Conditioned Stimulus **Correct Ans**- A previously neutral stimulus that, after
repeated association with an unconditioned stimulus, elicits the response produced
by the unconditioned stimulus itself.
Conditioned Response **Correct Ans**- A behavior that does not come
naturally, but must be learned by the individual by pairing a neutral stimulus with
an unconditioned stimulus.
Unconditioned Reinforcers **Correct Ans**- (AKA primary reinforcers) Stimuli
that do not require learning. (i.e. food, water, warmth, sleep, sexual stimulation)
Conditioned Reinforcers **Correct Ans**- (AKA secondary reinforcers) Neutral
stimuli that have been paired with unconditioned reinforcers, or other conditioned
reinforcers and through repeated pairing become reinforcers themselves. (i.e.
stickers, sound, people)
Generalized Conditioned Reinforcers **Correct Ans**- Stimuli that have been
paired with a variety of unconditioned and conditioned reinforcers. (i.e. praise,
attention, money, tokens)
Operant Behavior **Correct Ans**- Behavior that is controlled or influenced by
consequences.
Behavior whose future frequency is determined by a history of consequences.
Operant Conditioning **Correct Ans**- A type of learning where behavior is
controlled by consequences.
Behavior followed by pleasant consequences tends to be repeated.
Behavior followed by unpleasant consequences tends not to be repeated.
