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!

This situation is a clear example of a contingency In ABA a contingency describes an ifthen relationship between a behavior and its consequence where the consequence eg a reinforcer or punisher is delivered only if a specific behavior occurs Here the free class consequencereinforcer is contingent upon the behavior of scheduling a course It is not a bribe A bribe typically involves offering a reinforcer before an unwanted behavior occurs often to prevent it or delivering a reinforcer before the desired behavior has taken place The Pilates instructor is offering the free class after the scheduling behavior which is the correct temporal sequence for a contingency Noncontingent reinforcement NCR involves delivering a reinforcer on a fixed or variable time schedule completely independent of the individuals behavior In this scenario the free class is explicitly dependent on the scheduling behavior meaning it is not NCR Shaping is a behaviorchange procedure used to teach new behaviors by reinforcing successive approximations toward a terminal behavior The scenario describes a single desired behavior scheduling a class that learners are already capable of and theres no mention of reinforcing gradual steps or approximations so it is not an example of shaping
