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. During an instructional trial, a behavior technician tells a client, ‘Grab your blue shirt,’ and simultaneously points at the blue shirt. According to the definitions provided in the text regarding types of cues or prompts, what specific type of cue is the act of pointing at the blue shirt considered?

A) A positional cue, because it directs the client’s attention to the location of the blue shirt.

B) A stimulus cue, because it highlights an important feature of the blue shirt.

C) A physical cue, because it involves the use of a body part to guide the client’s response.

D) A movement cue, because it involves a gesture that directs the client’s attention to the correct item.

The text directly addresses this scenario telling the client to grab the blue shirt and then pointing at the shirt the pointing is the movement cue or the movement prompt A movement cue or prompt involves a gesture like pointing that indicates the correct response or object to the learner It guides the learners attention without directly manipulating the stimulus itself or physically guiding the learner Option A a positional cue involves changing the location of the stimulus Option B a stimulus cue involves altering an intrinsic feature of the stimulus eg making it brighter or larger Option C a physical cue involves direct physical contact with the learner to guide their movement Since pointing involves a gesture rather than changing position altering the stimulus or physically guiding it is correctly identified as a movement cue
