Assessment forms the foundation of effective behavioral interventions. This 6-question quiz explores the key assessment methods that RBTs use in practice, including preference assessments, functional behavior assessments, and skill-based evaluations. Understanding these assessment tools is crucial for identifying client needs and developing appropriate intervention strategies.

Question 1 of 6
1. Question
Which of the following is NOT considered a trial-based preference assessment?
Correct
Free operant preference assessment involves observing the client’s natural choices in an unstructured environment without presenting specific trials. Trial-based assessments like MSWO, MSW, and paired stimulus involve systematic presentation of items across structured trials to determine preference hierarchies.

Question 2 of 6
2. Question
Sarah is conducting a preference assessment with her client Emma. She places 6 toys in front of Emma and asks her to choose one. After Emma plays with the chosen toy for 30 seconds, Sarah removes it completely and presents the remaining 5 toys for the next trial. What type of preference assessment is Sarah using?
Correct
MSWO involves presenting an array of items, allowing the client to choose one, then permanently removing the chosen item before the next trial. This creates a preference hierarchy by systematically reducing available options until all items are ranked.

3. Question
Your BCBA asks you to assess whether your client can independently tie their shoes. During the assessment, you should:
Correct
During skill assessments, you present instructions without prompts, error correction, or differential reinforcement to determine the client’s current independent skill level. The goal is to assess existing abilities, not to teach during the assessment process.

Question 4 of 6
4. Question
While observing your client during naturalistic settings, you notice they throw materials immediately after being given a difficult math worksheet, and the teacher typically responds by removing the worksheet. You record: Antecedent = “difficult math worksheet presented,” Behavior = “throws materials,” Consequence = “worksheet removed.” What type of assessment data are you collecting?
Correct
ABC data collection is a descriptive assessment method that systematically records antecedents, behaviors, and consequences in natural settings. This helps identify patterns and generate hypotheses about behavioral function without manipulating variables.

Question 5 of 6
5. Question
Your BCBA hands you a new developmental assessment tool and asks you to administer it to your client next session. You have never used this assessment before and are unfamiliar with the procedures. What should you do?
Correct
RBTs must receive adequate training before administering any assessment tool. Proper training ensures accurate administration, reliable results, and ethical practice. Never attempt to use unfamiliar assessment tools without proper supervision and training from your BCBA.

Question 6 of 6
6. Question
Dr. Martínez systematically manipulates environmental conditions during brief sessions: in one condition she provides attention after problem behavior, in another she removes demands, and in a third she provides no interaction. She graphs the results to determine which condition produces the highest rate of problem behavior. What type of assessment is Dr. Martínez conducting?
Correct
Functional analysis involves experimental manipulation of environmental variables (attention, escape, tangible, alone conditions) to determine the function of problem behavior. This is the only assessment method that demonstrates functional relationships through controlled manipulation rather than observation or interviews.
