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 assigns an RBT to conduct an initial descriptive assessment for a new client exhibiting property destruction. The RBT is instructed to observe the client in various natural settings and meticulously record the environmental events that immediately precede (antecedents), occur simultaneously with (behaviors), and immediately follow (consequences) any instances of property destruction. What type of assessment data collection is the RBT primarily conducting?

Functional analysis

Permanent product recording

Frequency recording

ABC recording

ABC recording AntecedentBehaviorConsequence is a direct observation method used to gather descriptive data about a behavior and its environmental context The RBTs task of observing and recording events before during and after potential target behaviors directly aligns with the definition and purpose of ABC recording This descriptive data collection method helps in identifying potential correlations between environmental events and the target behavior providing hypotheses about the function of the behavior without actively manipulating variables This distinguishes it from a functional analysis where antecedents and consequences are systematically manipulated to determine their effect on the behavior Frequency recording involves counting the number of times a behavior occurs and permanent product recording involves measuring the tangible outcomes or effects of a behavior
