19. A token that can be exchanged for various items is called a:

 
 
 
 

20. When measuring IRT, the RBT is observing the time:

 
 
 
 

21. Backward chaining teaches:

 
 
 
 

22. A free-operant preference assessment is most useful for:

 
 
 
 

23. Which recording method most likely led to underreporting when an observer only marked engagement if the behavior occurred for the entire interval?

 
 
 
 

24. Which functional assessment method involves observing behavior in its natural environment without intervention?

 
 
 
 

25. If unsure, the RBT should:

 
 
 
 

26. In most-to-least prompting, the RBT starts with:

28. Maintenance refers to:

 
 
 
 

29. A picture used to cue a response is called a:

 
 
 
 

30. Accepting an expensive gift from a client without disclosure is:

 
 
 
 

31. If you record behavior occurrence only at specific moments rather than continuously, you’re using:

 
 
 
 

32. Backward chaining is helpful because:

 
 
 
 

33. When is permanent product recording most appropriate?

 
 
 
 

34. Which of the following is NOT a discontinuous measurement procedure?

 
 
 
 

35. When conducting an FBA, the RBT’s role is to:

 
 
 
 

36. Chaining links:

 
 
 
 

37. The RBT divides an hour into six 10‑minute blocks and records if the target behavior occurred at any point during each block. What method is this, and what’s a known downside?

 
 
 
 

38. An indirect assessment includes interviews and questionnaires and is best used to:

 
 
 
 

39. In DTT, a trial includes which sequence?
