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. John starts a new job as an accountant. His boss provides him with a detailed manual outlining all the processes and procedures he needs to follow. However, after reading the manual, John states he doesn’t understand any of the instructions and cannot confidently implement the procedures. Based on the seven dimensions of Applied Behavior Analysis, which dimension does this manual most likely lack?
This question probes understanding of the seven dimensions of Applied Behavior Analysis which are the defining characteristics of effective ABA interventions as articulated by Baer Wolf Risley 1968 The provided text describes a situation where a manual is not understood by John leading to his inability to repeat or implement the procedures The Technological dimension requires that all behaviorchange procedures and techniques used in an intervention are described clearly concisely and completely in sufficient detail so that any trained reader could accurately and consistently replicate them If John cannot understand or replicate the procedures from the manual it directly indicates a deficit in the technological nature of the manuals description Applied refers to the social significance of the behavior being targeted for change It focuses on the importance of the behavior to the individual and society which is not the issue with the manuals clarity Conceptually Systematic means that all behaviorchange procedures are derived from and consistent with the basic principles of behavior analysis eg reinforcement punishment extinction While the manuals content might be conceptually systematic in terms of accounting principles its description is the problem here The text explicitly states it could be using all the proper accounting terms the lingo the ideas the theories doesnt matter if John cant understand it Analytic means that the experimenter can demonstrate a functional relation between the intervention and the behavior change it refers to the experimental control needed to prove that the intervention caused the change This is unrelated to the manuals comprehensibility Therefore the core problem described the inability to understand and consequently implementreplicate the procedures directly points to a lack of a technological description within the manual
