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. A registered behavior technician (RBT) is implementing an intervention for a child who consistently throws toys from the play area onto the floor, scattering them widely. As part of the intervention, when the child throws toys, the RBT immediately requires the child to pick up all the thrown toys, arrange them neatly back on the shelves, and then also organize and clean a different, previously tidy, section of the play area. This additional cleaning task ensures that the environment is left in a significantly better condition than it was before the toy-throwing incident. What specific type of overcorrection is the RBT employing?
Restitutional overcorrection is a form of positive punishment in which contingent on an inappropriate behavior the individual is required to restore the disrupted environment to its original state and then improve it to a condition better than it was before the behavior occurred In this scenario not only is the child required to pick up the thrown toys but also to clean and organize an additional section of the play area making the environment significantly better than it was before the misbehavior This aligns directly with the definition provided in the text regarding the high school seniors who had to remove super glue and sweep the floors making the environment better than it was before Positive practice overcorrection involves requiring the individual to repeatedly perform a correct or appropriate behavior eg repeatedly walking correctly after running in the hall Negative practice overcorrection involves repeatedly performing the inappropriate behavior itself eg repeatedly throwing paper towels in the toilet Punishment by contingent exercise requires the individual to perform an effortful response that is unrelated to the misbehavior such as doing pushups or standing upsitting down repeatedly which is not what is described here as the task is directly related to cleaning the environment
