Stop the assessment immediately |

Even repeated choices must be recorded according to the planned paired-choice method.
Question 2 |

Reinforce vocal approximations if they are functional, while still following the PECS protocol | |
Switch completely to vocal training without BCBA approval | |
Collect no data since the program has shifted spontaneously |
Question 2 Explanation:
Reinforce functional communication approximations but continue implementing the plan as written until the BCBA updates it.
Question 3 |
During skill acquisition, a client demonstrates mastery of a target at 90% accuracy across three consecutive sessions. However, during generalization probes with a new therapist, accuracy drops to 40%. What should you do?
Mark the skill as mastered | |
Return the skill to baseline without consultation | |
Continue data collection and report the discrepancy to the BCBA | |
Modify teaching strategies independently |
Question 3 Explanation:
RBTs must collect and report data accurately; generalization deficits must be addressed by the BCBA.
