Which of the following is not one of the 7 dimensions of ABA?

• A. Applied
• B. Behavioral
• C. Generalidad
• D. Motivational

Answer: (D)

The question tests knowledge of the seven dimensions that define quality ABA practice. Those dimensions are Applied, Behavioral, Analytic, Technological, Conceptually Systematic, Generalidad (generalization), and Effective. Motivational is not one of them. Motivating Operations are a related concept that affects how much a consequence will influence behavior, but it isn’t listed as one of the seven dimensional standards. Understanding Generalidad helps: it means the behavior change shows up across people, settings, and over time, not just in a single situation. The other dimensions—Applied (socially significant targets), Behavioral (observable actions), Analytic (demonstrated functional relation), Technological (procedures described clearly), Conceptually Systematic (linked to a basic principle), and Effective (meaningful change)—all contribute to a robust, replicable intervention.
