Listen Later

Are you preparing for the RBT exam and struggling with Section B?

In this deep dive episode of Behavioral Intelligence con Mara Sánchez, we break down RBT Task List Section B step-by-step — including:

• Preference Assessments (Free Operant, MSWO, MSWR, Paired Stimulus)
• Skill Assessments (curriculum-based, developmental, and social skills)
• Functional Assessment Procedures (ABC data, descriptive assessment, and Functional Analysis)

You’ll learn the difference between preference and reinforcement, what it truly means to “participate” in assessments as an RBT, and the ethical boundaries you must never cross.

We also explain:

• How to correctly collect ABC data
• The difference between indirect, descriptive, and experimental assessments
• How Functional Analysis conditions work (attention, escape, tangible, automatic, play)
• Common exam traps students fall into
• Real-life clinical examples you’ll actually see in practice

If you're studying for the RBT exam, working in ABA, or preparing to become a Registered Behavior Technician, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and structure.

Behavior is never random — and neither is your success.

🎧 Study smarter. Practice ethically. Think behaviorally.
