RBT EXAM 2026 PART B - Behavior Assessment
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Preference Assessment (Defintion) | A process to discover what learners prefer for RBTs to identify reinforcers. |
| Preference Assessment Does preference guarantee reinforcement? | Preference does not guarantee reinforcement, but it helps determine what items are likely to be motivating. |
| Indirect Preference Assessment (Definiton) | Gather information by asking caregivers, teachers, or the client about preferred items instead of directly observing behavior. |
| Indirect Preference Assessment (Example) | You ask a parent what their child likes to play with. They report bubbles and a stuffed unicorn. You include those items in future assessments. |
| Free Operant Preference (Definition) | The client is given free access to multiple items with no demands placed on them. You observe which items they interact with and for how long. |
| Free Operant Preferences (Example) | During a 10-minuite session, the client spends 6 minutes on an iPad and 3 minutes with blocks. The iPad is identified as the highest-preference item. |
| Paired Stimulus (Forced Choice) (Definition) | Two items are presented at a time, and the client chooses one. Each item is paired with with other items to create a ranked preference list. |
| Multiple Stimulus With Replacement (MSW) (Definition) | Multiple items are presented. After selection, the chosen item is returned tot he array for the next trial. |
| Multiple Stimulus With Replacement (MSW) (Example) | Marble Run is chosen three times out of five trials, which Slinky and Bubbles are chosen once. This suggests that Marble Run is a good choice for the reinforcer testing. |
| Multiple Stimulus Without Replacement (MSWO) (Definition) | Similar to MSW, but once an item is selected, it is removed from the array. This method efficiently produces a clear preference hierarchy. |
| Multiple Stimulus Without Replacement (MSWO) (Example) | In MSWO with 6 toys, the first three choices quickly reveal top preferences. |
| What are four things that can be affected to preferences? | (1) Place, (2) States, (3) Events, and (4) Prolong Access/Availability. |
