BCBA Exam Practice Questions and
Answers (100% Pass)
stimulus class - Answer✔️✔️-any group of stimuli sharing a predetermined
set of common elements in one or more of the following: physical features,
temporally, & functionally
stimulus - Answer✔️✔️-energy change that affects an organism
response class - Answer✔️✔️-group of responses with the same function &
that produce the same effect on the environment
response - Answer✔️✔️-specific instance of behavior
behavior - Answer✔️✔️-activity of living organisms
applied behavior analysis - Answer✔️✔️-science in which tactics derived
from the principles of behavior are applied systematically to improve
socially significant behavior and experimentation is used to identify the
variables responsible for behavior change
empowering - Answer✔️✔️-a dimension of ABA that say tools that work to
instill confidence
doable - Answer✔️✔️-dimension of ABA that says interventions should be
pragmatic
accountable - Answer✔️✔️-dimension of ABA; behavior should be directly
& frequently measured
generality - Answer✔️✔️-dimension of ABA; changes should last over time
effective - Answer✔️✔️-dimension of ABA; noticeable and reliable changes
in target behavior
conceptually systematic - Answer✔️✔️-dimension of ABA; procedures &
effectiveness should be described in terms of behavioral principles
analytic - Answer✔️✔️-dimension of ABA; a functional relation between
manipulated events and a reliable change in a dimension of target behavior
should be demonstrated
technological - Answer✔️✔️-dimension of ABA; operative procedures are
identified & described with detail and clarity
behavioral - Answer✔️✔️-dimension of ABA; behavior should be in need of
improvement, measurable, & target the client's behavior
applied - Answer✔️✔️-dimension of ABA; improvements in behaviors that
enhance and improve people's lives
operant behaviors - Answer✔️✔️-behaviors not elicited by preceding stimuli
but influenced by stimulus changes that have followed behavior in the past
(e.g. not reflexive)
respondent behavior - Answer✔️✔️-reflexive behavior; elicited by an
antecedent
behaviorism - Answer✔️✔️-philosophy of science of behavior, experimental
analysis of behavior, & applied behavior analysis
functional relation - Answer✔️✔️-well-controlled experiment that reveals a
specific change in one event (DV) is reliably created by specific
manipulations of another event (IV) and that is unlikely to be a result of
confounding variables
antecedent - Answer✔️✔️-environmental conditions or stimulus changes
that exist or occur prior to behavior of iterest
consequence - Answer✔️✔️-a stimulus change that follows the target
behavior
conditioned stimulus - Answer✔️✔️-the stimulus component of a
conditioned reflex
conditioned reflex - Answer✔️✔️-learned stimulus-response functional
relation consisting of an antecedent stimulus and the response it elicits
operant conditioning - Answer✔️✔️-the process and selective effects of
consequences on behavior
reinforcer - Answer✔️✔️-a stimulus change that increases the future
frequency of behavior that immediately precedes it
punisher - Answer✔️✔️-a stimulus change that decreases the future
frequency of a behavior that immediately precedes it
positive reinforcement - Answer✔️✔️-a behavior is followed immediately by
the presentation of a stimulus and occurs more often in the future as a
result
negative reinforcement - Answer✔️✔️-a behavior is followed immediately
by the removal or termination of a stimulus and occurs more often in the
future as a result
extinction - Answer✔️✔️-reinforcement is withheld for all members of a
previously reinforced response class and the frequency of behavior
decreases to prereinforcement level or stops altogether as a result
punishment - Answer✔️✔️-when a behavior is followed by a stimulus
change that decreases future frequency of that behavior
unconditioned reinforcer - Answer✔️✔️-a stimulus change that can increase
the future frequency of behavior without prior pairing with any other form
of reinforcement
positive punishment - Answer✔️✔️-a behavior is immediately followed by
the presentation of a stimulus that decreases future frequency of that
behavior
negative punishment - Answer✔️✔️-a behavior is immediately followed by
the removal or termination of a stimulus that decreases future frequency of
the behavior
unconditioned punisher - Answer✔️✔️-a stimulus change that can decrease
future frequency of behavior without prior pairing with any other form of
reinforcement
conditioned reinforcers - Answer✔️✔️-a stimulus change that can increase
future frequency of behavior through prior pairing with other reinforcers
