Professional conduct represents approximately 11-15% of the RBT certification exam and forms the foundation of ethical, competent practice in applied behavior analysis. Strong professional conduct competencies ensure:
- Ethical Practice: Maintain the highest standards of professional integrity and client welfare
- Legal Compliance: Understand boundaries, limitations, and mandatory reporting requirements
- Supervision Effectiveness: Collaborate appropriately with BCBA supervisors and interdisciplinary teams
- Client Protection: Safeguard client rights, dignity, and confidentiality in all professional interactions
- Professional Growth: Engage in ongoing development and competency enhancement activities
- Public Trust: Uphold the reputation and credibility of the behavior analysis profession
Our professional conduct practice tests present complex ethical scenarios requiring careful consideration of competing interests, boundary issues, and appropriate professional responses. Each question emphasizes the RBT’s responsibility to practice within defined limits while maintaining therapeutic relationships and protecting client welfare above all other considerations.
