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. A behavior analyst is interested in measuring aspects of a client’s tics. Specifically, they want to record the time between the end of one tic and the beginning of the next, and also the time from the therapist’s instruction to the client’s first instance of a tic. Which dimension(s) of behavior are the behavior analyst primarily focused on measuring?
Temporal Locus refers to the point in time at which a behavior occurs with respect to a stimulus or another behavior It is comprised of two key measures 1 Interresponse Time IRT This measures the time elapsed between the end of one response and the beginning of the next response In the given scenario measuring the time between the end of one tic and the beginning of the next directly corresponds to IRT 2 Latency This measures the time elapsed between the onset of a stimulus eg a prompt or instruction and the initiation of a response Measuring the time from the therapists instruction to the clients first instance of a tic aligns with the definition of latency Option A Duration is a measure of temporal extent which refers to the total time a behavior occurs from beginning to end While important it does not capture the timing aspects described in the question between responses or from stimulus to response Option B Temporal Extent is the overarching dimension for duration Option D Frequency and Rate are measures of the repeatability of behavior how often a behavior occurs not the temporal positioning of responses
