You are a BCBA consulting with a teacher in a junior high, general education classroom. The teacher has one student who exhibits rocking behavior (i.e., moving side to side in his seat). This rocking behavior continues to catch the eyes of his peers, which distracts them from the lesson. The rocking behavior also makes it impossible for the student to take notes on the course material. The teacher wants to take data on this behavior, but feels overwhelmed with managing her other students in the class. You have to consult with other clients, so you need to teach her how to take data. What form of data collection is the most appropriate for the teacher in this case?

You are a BCBA at an ABA clinic. You work with a client who loves playing music videos on his iPad. When he comes into the clinic, you start your typical routine and place some mild demands (e.g., check your schedule).

You talk to his dad after the session and he mentions that they hit a lot of traffic coming to the clinic, so he let him watch music videos on his iPad on the way to the clinic. What did you just witness?

You are a BCBA consulting at a local school. You have been talking with a teacher who wants to implement a group contingency to include all of her students. Many of her students are forgetting to bring their pen and notebook to class. She wants them to be prepared for class. You work with her to create a group contingency that requires each person in the group to bring the pen and notebook to the classroom and set it on his/her desk. If all group members bring their notebook and pen to the class, the group gets a token and the tokens can be cashed in at the end of the month for a preferred activity (e.g., pizza party). What group contingency does this describe?
