A learner often refuses to clean up toys when asked. Before giving the clean-up instruction, you first ask them to complete several easy tasks they almost always follow (e.g., “Touch your head,” “Give me five,” “Clap”). After the client complies with these, you say, “Clean up,” and they complete the task. What intervention are you using?

During a community outing, a parent of another child asks you, “How is your client doing in therapy? I heard he struggles with behavior.” The caregiver of your client is not present, and you have not been authorized to share information. What should you do?

A client frequently grabs items from the instructor’s hands. Your supervisor instructs you to reinforce the client only when they ask for the item by saying “My turn please.” When the client grabs, you block the behavior and give no reinforcement. Over time, grabbing decreases and polite requesting increases. What procedure are you using?

You are teaching a learner to identify common objects. You present a picture of a cup and say, “What is it?” The learner does not respond, so you immediately provide a full verbal prompt (“Say cup”). The learner repeats “cup,” and you deliver reinforcement. On the next trial, you delay your prompt by 2 seconds to give the learner an opportunity to respond independently. What teaching procedure are you implementing?

You are writing your session notes. During play, the client threw a puzzle piece and screamed after being told it was time to clean up. Which note BEST meets documentation requirements?

A caregiver asks you to “try a new strategy” they saw online to reduce tantrums. The strategy is not in the treatment plan, and you have never been trained on it. What should you do FIRST?

A client typically screams to avoid brushing their teeth, and the caregiver usually allows them to skip it. You implement the plan to continue the routine despite the screaming. During the first week, the screaming becomes louder and lasts longer. What is MOST likely occurring?

A teacher reports that a student “acts out” during group time. Your supervisor asks you to observe and record what happens before and after each instance of the behavior. During your observation, you note:

• Antecedent: Teacher begins group reading

• Behavior: Student leaves seat and taps other children

• Consequence: Teacher redirects student back to seat

What type of assessment component are you completing?

A learner is being taught to independently wash their hands. You break the skill into steps: turn on water → wet hands → apply soap → scrub → rinse → turn off water → dry hands. You prompt the learner through all steps, but fade prompts from the first step forward as they become more independent. What type of chaining procedure is this?

During a session, you present five preferred items in a row and say, “Pick one.” The client chooses the bubbles first, then you remove the bubbles and say, “Pick one” again. The client picks the Play-Doh next. You continue until all items are selected. What type of assessment are you conducting?

During play, a child reaches toward a toy car on a shelf and says, “Car!” You pause, wait for the child to look at you, and say, “Tell me what you want.” The child says, “Car please,” and you immediately give them the car. What teaching procedure are you using?

A client’s caregiver gives you a $40 gift card during the holidays and says, “You deserve this! Please don’t tell your supervisor.” What is the MOST appropriate response?

During today’s session, the client appeared tired and yawned frequently. Halfway through, the caregiver tells you the client went to bed very late last night and skipped breakfast. The client performed significantly worse than usual on skill programs. What is the MOST appropriate action?

A caregiver reports that the client hits their sibling “randomly,” but you notice the hitting mostly occurs when the sibling takes the client’s toys. You document the antecedent, behavior, and consequence for each episode across several days. What type of functional assessment component are you completing?

Your supervisor adds a new behavior reduction procedure to the client’s plan. You have never been trained on the procedure, but the caregiver insists you start using it today because the problem behavior is getting worse. What should you do?

A teacher reports that a client “is being rude during math class.” You must prepare a data sheet, so you need an observable definition. Which of the following BEST meets the requirement?

You are helping your supervisor evaluate a client’s daily living skills. They ask you to observe whether the client can brush their teeth independently. You record which steps they complete correctly (turning on faucet, applying toothpaste, brushing, rinsing, etc.). What type of assessment are you participating in?

A supervisor asks you to track how many worksheets a learner completes during independent work time. The learner works alone at a desk, and you check the materials afterward. What is the BEST measurement method?

A caregiver reports that the client hits their sibling “randomly,” but you notice the hitting mostly occurs when the sibling takes the client’s toys. You document the antecedent, behavior, and consequence for each episode across several days. What type of functional assessment component are you completing?

You are teaching a client to touch the picture of a dog when asked, “Touch dog.” To prevent errors, you place the picture of the dog close to the client and the incorrect pictures farther away, then use a gesture prompt pointing to the correct picture. As the learner succeeds, you gradually move the pictures to equal distances and fade your gestures. What is this teaching strategy called?
