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. The Florida State Seminoles football team implements a comprehensive motivational system. Players earn coveted helmet stickers for significant achievements, such as making big plays on the field or achieving high academic marks. However, if players incur penalties for misbehavior during games, fail to meet team duties, or violate team rules, they are required to forfeit or lose previously earned helmet stickers. The specific act of players losing these earned helmet stickers as a direct consequence of their misbehavior is an example of which behavioral principle?

Positive reinforcement

Negative reinforcement

Negative punishment

Extinction

The question specifically asks about the act of losing helmet stickers for getting in trouble or fail to fulfill their duties This describes negative punishment Negative punishment involves the removal lose or forfeit of a stimulus the helmet stickers which are presumably valued and serve as a reinforcer from the environment contingent upon a behavior with the intended effect of decreasing the future probability of that behavior The first sentence describes positive reinforcement adding stickers for good behavior but the question focuses on the second scenario Negative reinforcement involves the removal of an aversive stimulus to increase a desired behavior which is not whats happening here Extinction involves withholding reinforcement for a previously reinforced behavior leading to its decrease but in this case a stimulus is actively being removed not just withheld
