CBCC- KA Practice Test Questions With100% Verified Answers
Changing Criterion CORRECT ANSWERS A research design in which the rate of the
target response is progressively changed (up or down). Used when the final level of the
target response is radically different from baseline and likely to resist change.
Ratio strain is a disruption in responding due to CORRECT ANSWERS when a dog's
pattern of responding begins disrupting because of stretching that ratio too much.
"overworked and underpaid"
What does the central nervous system consist of? CORRECT ANSWERS brain and
spinal cord
functional analysis CORRECT ANSWERS systematic manipulation of environmental
contingencies
Differential Reinforcement of High Rate CORRECT ANSWERS behavior is reinforced
only if it occurs at least a specified number of times in a given period
What reinforcement schedule should you use when dogs engage in a desirable
behavior at a rate far below what we want to see. CORRECT ANSWERS Using DRH
systematically reinforces incremental increases in the rate of that behavior.
Circling, freezing, snapping in the air, tail chasing, and pacing are all examples of
CORRECT ANSWERS Behaviors that have been referred to as compulsive disorders,
obsessive compulsive disorders, and stereotypies
Behavior Analysis CORRECT ANSWERS A comprehensive experimental approach to
the study of the behavior of organisms, including: the discovery of principles and laws
that govern behavior, the extension of these principles over species, and the
development of an applied technology.
Behavioral Assessment CORRECT ANSWERS The systematic study of an individual's
behavior patterns. The information gathered is used to clearly define a specific behavior
prior to, during, and after any type of treatment or intervention.
DRL CORRECT ANSWERS Unlike DRA, DRI, and DRO, this procedure doesn't want to
eliminate the behavior. Instead, it just wants to decrease how often the behavior occurs.
Differential Reinforcement of Low Rate CORRECT ANSWERS An owner wants her
guard dog to bark less, but not extinguish his barking entirely. The trainer taught the dog
to "speak" on command, and used a fixed interval schedule of reinforcement to
decrease his barking. This is an example of:
,Differential Reinforcement of Other Behavior CORRECT ANSWERS While DRA and
DRI want to introduce a different behavior, what reinforcement only cares about the
subject not doing the target behavior?
limbic system CORRECT ANSWERS What system plays a vital role in dogs 'decision
making' capacity, helping them determine what they should or shouldn't do in a given
situation?
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) CORRECT ANSWERS Phobias in pets are
commonly assumed to be associated with specific stimuli, such as thunderstorms, loud
noises, strangers, separation from an owner, or the outdoors. However, some dogs
chronically exhibit signs of anxiety regardless of their situation. While demonstrations of
fear may intensify when these animals are exposed to certain situations or stimuli, such
pets are rarely or never truly relaxed and calm. These pets may have what disorder?
nervous system CORRECT ANSWERS The brain processes the input from the senses,
develops a response, and ultimately drives appropriate motor functions. What is
responsible, either directly or indirectly, for all behaviors.
reticular formation (RF) CORRECT ANSWERS Inescapable trauma and prolonged
stress result in the depletion of NE, and NE depletion is associated with learned
helplessness. What activates this arousal?
What factors affect the chain of sensory and motor function input-processing-output?
CORRECT ANSWERS hormonal state, previous experiences, alertness, mood, health,
environment, and sensory capability.
What system forms a network of nerves that serve as a link between the brain and
spinal cord to communicate with the body. CORRECT ANSWERS Peripheral nervous
system
distress vocalizations CORRECT ANSWERS rapid series whines and yelps occurring at
rates that can exceed 100 per minute in 3-week-old puppies during situations of obvious
discomfort.
(ex: when used in puppies, the function is to reunite the neonate and the bitch.)
Bark Vocalizations CORRECT ANSWERS associated with greeting, play solicitation,
alarm, hunting, tracking, herding, vocal alerting, defense, threat, care seeking, distress,
contact seeking, and group vocalization
An animal's _______ ________ _______ only develops its genetically predetermined
functions if exposed to appropriate environmental stimulation, especially early in life.
CORRECT ANSWERS central nervous system
,A restricted environment early in life results in an animal with abnormal _____ ______.
The animal may not be able to perceive stimuli to which it was not exposed during
development. CORRECT ANSWERS sensory perception
The scientific method is valuable because it:
a) offers answers not biased by cultural, social, or political beliefs.
b) offers an effective method for proving or disproving a hypothesis.
c) provides undisputed facts about the information being studied.
d) provides a standardized set of methods for gathering and discussing information
CORRECT ANSWERS b or d?
Which of the following describes a functional analysis manipulation?
a) Modification of antecedent events and the consequences for the problem behaviors
b) Direct observation of current problem behaviors and anecdotal observation of
predicted problem behaviors
c) Placement of dog in stressful and non-stressful situations and documentation of the
resulting behavior
d) Placement of dog into a positive emotional state and observation of behavior over
time and in different environments CORRECT ANSWERS a) Modification of antecedent
events and the consequences for the problem behaviors
_____ based treatments can be developed to reduce problem behavior and increase
appropriate behavior CORRECT ANSWERS function
Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) CORRECT ANSWERS includes all the different
ways to learn about behavior by testing behavior directly (an analysis) and ways that do
not (all other types of assessment)
Functional Analysis (FA) CORRECT ANSWERS scientific way of trying it and seeing
what happens. It involves testing how certain changes impact the occurrence of
problem behavior.
Congenital CORRECT ANSWERS An often-inherited medical condition that occurs at or
before birth.
proximate causes of behavior CORRECT ANSWERS the immediate day to day
environmental factors or stimuli that influence our responses
- What stimulus causes the behavior?
- What does the dogs body do in response to the stimulus?
ultimate causes of behavior CORRECT ANSWERS the evolutionary processes that
produced the animal's capacity and tendency to behave in particular ways
The "bigger picture"
1) What about this behavior helps the animal survive?
2) What is the evolutional history of this behavior?
, Scientific Method Steps CORRECT ANSWERS 1) QUESTION AND A THEORY
a. what explains and organizes different observations and predicts outcomes
2) HYPOTHESIS
a. testable prediction
3) TEST WITH A REPLICABLE EXPERIMENT
a. allows other researchers to replicate the experiment
consistent results w/ various subjects/situations
experiments CORRECT ANSWERS Allow investigators to isolate different effects by
manipulating an independent variable and keeping other variables constant.
simultaneous conditioning CORRECT ANSWERS a classical conditioning procedure in
which the CS and the US are presented at the same time
- Because there is no interval between the conditioned stimulus and unconditioned
stimulus it makes this type of conditioning ineffective.
Setting Events CORRECT ANSWERS The general environmental conditions that
provide the context for and influence negative behavior
- important to acknowledge, determine how they affect clients, in order to find solutions
that improve behavior.
Stretching the ratio is the procedure used to CORRECT ANSWERS gradually increase
the number of responses required for the dog to earn reinforcement.
Protocol for emotional and behavioral modification CORRECT ANSWERS 1. investigate
health and stress
2. create prevention plan
3. condition reinforcers and markers
4. train and proof behaviors
5. teach the concept of a set up
6. separating triggers in set ups
7. training during real life
criterion CORRECT ANSWERS a plan or blueprint of different levels of training within a
given exercise.
- during that set of repetitions you will click only behavior that meets your criterion.
- you will click at the moment the dog meets your criterion.
professional code of ethics CORRECT ANSWERS
Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics CORRECT ANSWERS - (LIMA) based
approach.
- provide full disclosure of potential conflicts of interest to clients and other
professionals.
- work within their professional education and individual expertise.
