This question was created for BCBA Scenario Tutor. It is not an official, leaked, or copied BACB exam question.

The item includes an answer key, explanation, wrong-choice notes, domain label, concept tags, and source notes. Automated checks cover structure, coverage, and consistency only. No named, credential-verifiable BCBA external review has occurred, and this is not a clinical or exam-validity certification.

Collaboration to support client services: Social validity and feasibility. in Selecting and Implementing Interventions, with study tags for Social validity and feasibility, Collaboration to support client services, acceptability, caregiver collaboration.

Before reading the explanation, choose an answer and name the scenario clue. If you missed it, review Social validity and feasibility and try similar questions in this domain.

This is an original study item for BCBA Scenario Tutor, not an official BACB exam question or a copied exam item.

An intervention reduces grabbing items from shelves during clinic sessions, but care team cannot use it during daily routines. Across 5 sessions in service week 44, 2 observers recorded 25 minutes of observation in the community outing. Before continuing unchanged, the BCBA should:

This choice is weaker because it does not resolve the key prerequisite in the scenario: an intervention reduces grabbing items from shelves during clinic sessions, but care team cannot use it during daily routines. Across 5 sessions in service week 44, 2 observers recorded 25 minutes of observation in the community outing. Before continuing unchanged, the BCBA should:

Then answer a few related scenarios before moving back to broad practice.

Does the answer choose a feasible, least intrusive, function-based intervention and monitor implementation?

An intervention reduces grabbing items from shelves during clinic sessions, but care team cannot use it during daily routines. Across 5 sessions in service week 44, 2 observers recorded 25 minutes of observation in the community outing. Before continuing unchanged, the BCBA should:

Keep plan unchanged despite implementation barriers. This often shows up as improved graph means stakeholder concerns do not matter..

Rewrite the miss as a rule: "When I see Social validity and feasibility, I must identify the relevant evidence before choosing the action." Then answer two related H domain questions without reading explanations first.

Practice 3 more questions tagged to Social validity and feasibility, then explain why each wrong answer is weaker before moving back to mixed practice.

This choice is weaker because it does not resolve the key prerequisite in the scenario: an intervention reduces grabbing items from shelves during clinic sessions, but care team cannot use it during daily routines. Across 5 sessions in service week 44, 2 observers recorded 25 minutes of observation in the community outing. Before continuing unchanged, the BCBA should:

This choice weakens the data basis for the decision. A defensible answer must check whether the measurement, observation, or visual-analysis evidence supports the next step.

This choice moves too quickly toward a more intrusive response. The better answer checks function, risk, feasibility, and less intrusive options first.
