Getting ready for your BCBA exam? You’re in the right place.

I created RBTExamPrep.com to give you the most realistic BCBA mock exam experience possible 185 questions designed to feel just like the real thing.

My goal isn’t just to help you pass, but to help you understand every concept deeply.
Whether you get a question right or wrong, you’ll see detailed feedback explaining why, so you’ll be ready for that type next time. I want you to walk into test day feeling confident, calm, and prepared.

Many students have shared that these questions felt almost identical to the real exam and that’s exactly what I was aiming for. I’d love to hear how you did please share your score in the comments below! It really helps encourage others who are preparing for the exam. 🙂

I built this site to keep high-quality BCBA prep resources free and accessible for everyone, which is why it’s supported by ads. If it helped you, it’d mean a lot if you shared it with your peers.

If you want to keep practicing, check out the BCBA section for more tests and study materials!

#1. A Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) is collaborating with a school psychologist to develop an intervention plan for a client exhibiting selective eating behaviors. The psychologist proposes a cognitive-based intervention focused on ‘self-control’ techniques, which the BCBA recognizes is not conceptually systematic with behavior analytic principles and lacks observable and measurable components from an ABA perspective. Considering the client’s best interests and professional collaboration, what is the most appropriate and ethical response for the BCBA?

Explain to the psychologist and parents that ‘self-control’ is a misnomer and cognitive-based interventions are not observable or measurable.

Refuse to participate in any aspect of the intervention, stating that behavior analysts should only engage in behavior analytic interventions.

Offer to administer the cognitive-based assessment to demonstrate a willingness to collaborate.

Design a data collection plan to record observable and measurable behaviors, such as the client’s baseline food intake and intake after the psychologist’s intervention begins.

This scenario highlights the importance of ethical conduct and interprofessional collaboration Option D is the most appropriate and ethical response for a BCBA It demonstrates support for the team and the client by focusing on observable and measurable outcomes which aligns with behavior analytic principles By collecting data on food intake the BCBA can objectively evaluate the impact of the psychologists intervention This approach allows for datadriven decisionmaking respects the expertise of other professionals and keeps the clients welfare paramount Options A and B are antagonistic and uncollaborative potentially harming the professional relationship and ultimately the clients support system Option C is outside the BCBAs scope of practice unless specifically trained and competent in cognitivebased assessments which is generally not the case
