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 group of university researchers is conducting an experiment in a highly controlled laboratory environment. They are systematically manipulating the amount of sleep and type of toys available to a colony of prairie dogs, meticulously collecting data on their burrowing patterns and social interactions. The primary goal is to discover fundamental relationships between these environmental variables and the prairie dogs’ behavior, without immediate concern for practical application to human behavior. Under which major category of behaviorism do these research activities primarily fall?

A) Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)

B) Practice Guided by Behavior Analysis (PGBBA)

C) Experimental Analysis of Behavior (EAB)

D) Radical Behaviorism

The text clearly differentiates the types of behaviorism Experimental Analysis of Behavior EAB is described as research conducted within a lab with animals where variables are systematically manipulated to understand basic principles much like Skinners work with his rats hitting switches doing experiments The scenario describedhighly controlled laboratory setting animal subjects prairie dogs systematic manipulation of variables sleep toys and focus on discovering fundamental relationshipsaligns perfectly with the definition of EAB Applied Behavior Analysis ABA focuses on the real world with people researching and designing interventions for socially significant human behavior Practice Guided by Behavior Analysis PGBBA involves the practical implementation of behavior change procedures by practitioners like RBTs based on principles discovered through EAB and ABA Radical Behaviorism is the overarching philosophical foundation not a category of research practice itself
