RBT Competency Assessment Flashcards

A method used to record whether the student was able to independently provide the correct response upon the first presentation of the SD (3 consecutive yes probes = mastered skill)

A technique useful when teaching play skills, starting with items the student has shown interest in, using two identical sets for teacher and student, with an SD of 'do this'.

Imitation of body movements without needing any materials, with an SD of 'copy me'.
