RBT Behavior Acquisition Quiz (Domain C)

A client receives a token for every correct response. This is an example of what schedule of reinforcement?

You are using Most-to-Least (MTL) prompting. Your first trial for a new skill is a full physical prompt. If the client gets this correct, what is the next step in the prompt fading sequence?

What type of reinforcer is a token in a token economy system?

When teaching a client to point to a picture, the RBT points to the correct picture right after giving the SD. What type of prompt is the RBT using?

After a client successfully and independently responds to a new acquisition target, what is the best practice for the therapist to do before presenting the subsequent trial of the same new target?

When using Forward Chaining to teach handwashing, which step does the client perform and is immediately reinforced for, while the RBT completes all subsequent steps?

In a NET session, the reinforcer is typically related to the stimulus being taught. What is this natural relationship called?

What is the primary difference between Naturalistic Teaching (NET) and DTT?

What procedure is used to ensure a client can tell the difference between two or more stimuli (e.g., correctly pointing to a picture of an apple when presented with both an apple and a banana)?

If an RBT provides a small preferred edible immediately after a correct response, what principle is being directly applied to strengthen the behavior?

A client learns to tie their shoes using white laces. To promote generalization, the RBT practices the skill using shoes with blue laces and different textures. This is an example of programming for generalization across what aspect?

Why is a precise “inter-trial interval” (ITI) necessary in DTT?

What is the primary difference between a known/mastered target and a distractor in a DTT array?

An RBT is teaching a client to say “water.” They first reinforce the client for saying “wa,” then only for saying “wawa,” and finally only for saying the full word “water.” What procedure is the RBT using?

During discrimination training, an RBT notices that a client responds only to the picture’s size, not the actual item (e.g., they always choose the biggest card, regardless of the picture). What term describes this issue?

In the context of DTT, what immediately follows the client’s correct response and is designed to increase the likelihood of that response occurring again?

 What is the term for the brief instruction or cue presented by the therapist that signals the opportunity for the client to respond in a Discrete-Trial Teaching (DTT) session?

In Total Task Chaining, when does the RBT provide prompts and reinforcement?

Errorless teaching is most closely associated with which type of prompt fading procedure?

Your supervisor tells you to transition a client’s mastered skill to an intermittent schedule. Which reinforcement schedule is an example of an intermittent schedule?

What must an RBT first create and follow precisely when implementing any chaining procedure?

A client picks up a block and looks at the RBT. The RBT uses this natural opportunity to ask, “What is it?” and provides reinforcement when the client says, “Block.” What is the client’s current motivation (or motivating operation) that the RBT is using?

What is the goal of a Time Delay prompt fading procedure?

After teaching the client to touch the apple picture, the RBT must ensure the client can still correctly touch it two months later without further teaching. This is an example of checking for:
