RBT Video Course (Complete)
Complete RBT Video Course
Master every item on the RBT Task List (2nd Ed.) with dedicated video lessons, study notes, and quizzes.
Data Collection
Continuous Measurement
Mastering Frequency, Duration, Latency, and IRT recording.
Discontinuous Measurement
Partial Interval, Whole Interval, and Momentary Time Sampling procedures.
Permanent Product
Measuring behavior by looking at the tangible outcome (e.g., completed homework).
Graphing Data
How to enter data into line graphs and update them according to protocol.
Operational Definitions
Describing behavior in observable and measurable terms (Objective vs. Subjective).
Calculate & Summarize
Converting raw data into percentages and rates.
Identify Trends
Recognizing Ascending, Descending, and Stable data paths.
Risks of Unreliable Data
Why accuracy matters and the impact on client treatment.
Assessment
Preference Assessments
Mastering Paired Choice, MSWO, and Single Stimulus methods to identify reinforcers.
Skill Assessments
Assisting with curriculum-based assessments like VB-MAPP, ABLLS-R, and probing.
Functional Assessment
Determining the function of behavior and collecting accurate ABC Data.
Acquisition
Reinforcement
Positive vs. Negative reinforcement and Conditioned vs. Unconditioned reinforcers.
Discrete Trial Teaching
The structured DTT cycle: SD → Response → Consequence.
Naturalistic Teaching
NET strategies: Teaching within the natural context and following motivation.
Chaining
Breaking tasks into steps: Forward, Backward, and Total Task chaining.
Discrimination Training
Teaching a client to distinguish between stimuli (SD vs. S-Delta).
Prompting
Prompt hierarchies, fading procedures, and errorless learning.
Gen & Maintenance
Applying skills in new settings (Generalization) and keeping them over time (Maintenance).
Shaping
Reinforcing successive approximations (baby steps) toward a behavior.
Token Economies
Using generalized reinforcers (tokens) to exchange for backup rewards.
Reduction
Functions of Behavior
Identifying the "Why": Sensory, Escape, Attention, Tangible (SEAT).
Antecedent Interventions
Preventative strategies: Visual schedules, FCT, and NCR.
Differential Reinforcement
Replacing problem behavior using DRA, DRO, and DRI.
Extinction
Discontinuing reinforcement to decrease behavior frequency.
Punishment Procedures
Using Positive (+) and Negative (-) consequences to reduce behavior.
Side Effects
Extinction bursts, spontaneous recovery, and emotional aggression.
Documentation
Communicating Concerns
Reporting incidents, legal issues, and clinical questions promptly.
Seeking Supervision
Actively requesting guidance on new behaviors or ethical dilemmas.
Reporting Variables
Documenting illness, medication changes, and other factors affecting the client.
Ethics
Core Ethical Principles
Do no harm, be honest, be just, and treat others with dignity.
Competence
Practicing within your scope and knowing when to ask for help.
Supervision Requirements
Meeting the 5% minimum and 2 face-to-face contacts per month.
Effective Supervision
Actively participating in feedback and improving performance.
Confidentiality
Protecting client data (HIPAA) and avoiding social media posting.
Public Statements
Representing ABA accurately and avoiding false claims.
Multiple Relationships
Avoiding dual roles (e.g., babysitting, dating) to prevent conflicts.
Gift Guidelines
Adhering to value limits ($10) and declining cash gifts.
