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!

 

Results

#1. You consistently make tea every morning for your family, and everyone drinks a cup. In the afternoon, you often consider making a second pot of tea. On three separate occasions, you ask your family if they would like any afternoon tea, and each time they unequivocally tell you ‘no.’ After the third instance of asking and receiving a ‘no,’ you stop asking them in the afternoon and instead just make a pot for yourself. What behavioral principle most accurately explains the change in your future behavior of asking your family if they want afternoon tea?

Extinction

Positive Punishment

Negative Punishment

Positive Reinforcement

Your behavior of asking your family if they want tea in the afternoon decreased you stopped asking after they repeatedly said no A decrease in the future probability of a behavior indicates a punishment procedure has occurred We must then determine if its positive or negative Since the no response from your family was added to the environment it appeared immediately after your behavior and resulted in a decrease in your future behavior of asking it represents a positive punishment procedure Extinction A involves the withholding of reinforcement for a behavior that was previously reinforced in this scenario your afternoon asking behavior was never reinforced by family members accepting tea so there was no reinforcement to withhold Negative punishment C would involve the removal of a stimulus following a behavior which did not occur here Positive reinforcement D would result in an increase in the future probability of the behavior which is the opposite of what happened
