What is interobserver agreement (IOA)?
When 2 data collectors agree on data collected at the same time during the display of the behavior
Which of the following is an example of an issue related to boundaries of competence?
An RBT deciding which data to collect to build a verbal behavior program
Which activity is appropriate for an RBT to engage in when data are being collected for the behavior intervention process?
Collecting frequency data during an observation of the learner
In ABA, which is the best reason why behaviors are targeted for increase?
So learners can increase overall skill repertoires

The process of defining target behaviors using a precise definition is called:
Operationally defining the behavior
Why is it important to define a behavior in observable and measurable terms?
So the behavior's occurrence can be agreed upon by different observers
