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. Walter, a business partner, observes that Jesse’s timely work completion is inconsistent, which is beginning to negatively impact customer satisfaction and overall profit margins. Walter decides he will systematically introduce and manipulate various reinforcement and punishment procedures to encourage Jesse to complete his work more promptly. In the context of an experimental analysis, what specific term describes Jesse’s ‘timely work completion’ that Walter is measuring and attempting to change?
In the framework of experimental design within Applied Behavior Analysis the dependent variable DV is the specific behavior or measurable outcome that is the focus of the study It is the variable that is hypothesized to change or depend on the manipulations made to the independent variable In this scenario Walter is systematically altering manipulating the reinforcement and punishment procedures these are the independent variables IVs His goal is to observe the effect of these manipulations on Jesses timely work completion Therefore Jesses timely work completion is the dependent variable The independent variable is what the experimenter manipulates reinforcement and punishment in this case Confounding variables are uncontrolled factors that might covary with the independent variable and influence the dependent variable making it difficult to determine causality Extraneous variables are all other variables in an experiment that are not the independent variable or dependent variable but could potentially affect the outcome
