What is an interobserver agreement (IOA)? - ANS - When 2 data collectors agree on data collected at the same time during a behavior.

which of the following staff members can supervise RBTS? - ANS - BCBAs, BCaBAs, and other qualified professionals who have completed supervision training

Which of the following could be a prevention strategy for a behavior that involves throwing items? - ANS
- Minimizing the number of items that could be thrown
Why are crisis plans incorporated into some behavior intervention plans? - ANS - Because some behaviors cause a risk to the safety of the individual engaging in the behavior or others in the environment

Behavioral function tries to explain: - ANS - Why the behavior is happening
Undesirable behavior can be reduced by: - ANS - Reinforcing alternative behaviors, using extinction, or punishment
Behavioral function derived from the results of functional analysis tends to produce interventions that: - ANS - Rely more heavily on reinforcement and are less likely to make use of punishment
Because trial-based functional analyses are delivered in natural environments, results have: - ANS - Higher levels of external validity
Which of the following statements reflects the idea behind Interview- Informed Contingency Analysis
(IISCA): - ANS - Behaviors respond to multiple reinforcers not just one
Which of the following types of functional analysis is the best choice for behaviors that occur once like
disrobing: - ANS - Latency-based functional analysis
Which of the following can RBTs do in relation to implementing intervention plans? - ANS - Collect data on the effectiveness of the plan
Which of the following is an example of a motivating operation: - ANS - Fred is hungry so crackers work well as a reinforcer for task compliance
Automatic reinforcement is associated most closely with: - ANS - Stereotypic behavior
What is the estimated percentage of self-injurious behaviors that have automatic reinforcement as the function according to Hagopian et al. (2015)? - ANS - 25%

3 Which of the following 2 assessments are often used in conjunction to provide an overall picture of an individual's receptive and expressive labeling abilities? - ANS - The expressive vocabulary test and the peabody picture vocabulary test
A learner who requires a wide program with many goals and targets is more likely to: - ANS - Have fewer behavior problems and skills that are ready for generalization soon
One of the benefits of using an assessment tool that was not designed solely for a population of individuals with autism is: - ANS - They offer some external validity to levels of functioning prior to and after intervention has started
One of the benefits of a workshop format for developing training families and staff on skill acquisitions is:
- ANS - A unified plan of how to implement plans and intervene with behaviors can be made
collaboratively
According to Leaf et al. (2018), rates of learning on labeling tasks after receiving reinforcement from paired-stimulus preference assessment vs. an in-the-moment analysis of reinforcers were: - ANS - No different between the two methods for assessing preferences
Which of the following is most likely used by payers to guide them in approving or discontinuing ABA treatment? - ANS - Changes in the core characteristics of autism as defined as a result of intervention
"4 out of 5 times for 10 consecutive data recording periods" is an example of which part of a goal: - ANS - Criterion to identify the standard for the behavior
Behavioral Skills Training (BST) is often used to train staff and families because: - ANS - It is an evidence- based practice
The Interview Informed Synthesized Contingency Analysis (IISCA) uses: - ANS - Information from open- ended interviews to determine which experimental conditions to use in a functional analysis
Which of the following considerations related to intervention data triggers the need for a re-assessment of skills? - ANS - The client has not made much progress
- / 4
4 Which of the following autism specific criterion referenced assessments offer an assessment of 25 skill
areas: - ANS - The ABLLS-R
Criterion-referenced assessments are most useful for: - ANS - Building skill acquisition programs
One of the biggest drawbacks of the workshop format is: - ANS - It is often difficult to coordinate schedules for the time needed

programs
The overall goal of the PEAK system is to: - ANS - Encourage the acquisition of skills that can be generalized and promote higher order thinking in novel contexts
Which of the following can be said about social skills assessments not designed specifically for individuals with autism? - ANS - While they offer a picture of an individual's social functioning, the results are not adequate for making all the decisions necessary for social skill intervention
Which of the following activities are web-based ABA curricula and data collection systems designed to replace? - ANS - Manual data entry on skill acquisition plans
Which of the following is an indicator that an intake appointment has been successful? - ANS - You have a good idea how to proceed with assessment of skills
