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.

#1. Veronica is struggling with her math homework, visibly counting on her fingers. Her mom observes this and says, ‘Veronica, use your calculator.’ Simultaneously, she slides the calculator, which was slightly out of reach, directly in front of Veronica, making it easily accessible. In this scenario, the mom’s action of sliding the calculator closer to Veronica represents which type of prompt?

Verbal prompt

Gestural prompt

Positional prompt

Modeling prompt

The moms verbal instruction Veronica use your calculator serves as the discriminative stimulus SD because it signals the availability of reinforcement for a particular response The action of sliding the calculator closer is an additional cue that makes the correct response using the calculator more likely to occur thus functioning as a prompt This is specifically a positional prompt because the mom is changing the location or position of the stimulus the calculator to make it more salient physically closer or easily accessible to the learner A verbal prompt would be an additional spoken instruction A gestural prompt would involve pointing or motioning without directly manipulating the stimulus A modeling prompt would involve the mom demonstrating the target behavior eg showing how to pick up and use the calculator Since the stimulus itself is moved it is a positional prompt
