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 BCBA has established a behavior contract for a 12-year-old client. During implementation, the client’s sibling, who is not a client on the BCBA’s caseload, repeatedly interferes with and sabotages the client’s efforts to meet the contract’s terms. Considering the ethical guidelines for scope of practice, what is the most appropriate immediate next step for the BCBA?

Initiate data collection on the sibling’s behavior and design a targeted intervention plan for the sibling.

Discuss the sibling’s interfering behavior with the client’s parents and provide recommendations for parental strategies to mitigate the issues impacting the client’s contract.

Modify the existing behavior contract with the client to account for the sibling’s interference, without involving the parents.

Disregard the sibling’s actions as they are outside the direct scope of the BCBA’s professional responsibility to the identified client.

The text explicitly cautions against collecting data on or providing direct treatment recommendations for a nonclient stating is the brother your client No all our recommendations all our data needs to be in relation to our client Instead the suggested ethical and effective approach is to discuss the siblings behavior with the clients parents and offer recommendations for ways to alleviate the issues This allows the BCBA to address an environmental variable that is negatively impacting the clients program by working with the appropriate stakeholders the parents without overstepping the bounds of their professional relationship or scope of practice by treating a nonclient Option A violates ethical guidelines by providing services to a nonclient Option C might be an eventual step but must be done in collaboration with the parents to address the environmental factor Option D is inappropriate as it ignores a significant barrier to the clients success
