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. Michael, who has mild Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), experiences a strong urge to repeatedly turn a light switch off and on when leaving a room, especially when he is alone. To address this behavior, Michael intentionally engages in turning the light switch off and on 100 times before finally exiting the room. This self-applied technique, where Michael performs the target maladaptive behavior multiple times in a concentrated manner to decrease its future occurrence, is an example of what specific behavior-change procedure?

Negative practice

Positive practice

Massed practice

Restitutional overcorrection

Massed practice is a type of overcorrection where an individual is required to perform the problem behavior or a component of it repeatedly and rapidly for a specified period or number of times The rationale is that engaging in the behavior excessively can lead to a decrease in its future likelihood possibly due to response fatigue or satiation In this scenario Michael is applying this technique to himself as a form of selfmanagement to address his OCDrelated behavior Negative practice while similar in requiring repeated performance of the maladaptive behavior is typically implemented by a therapist rather than selfapplied and the goal is often to make the behavior aversive Positive practice involves repeatedly performing the correct or desired alternative behavior Restitutional overcorrection requires the individual to repair the environment to a state that is better than it was before the misbehavior occurred
