Challenging behaviors are unavoidable. Most of all challenging behavior serves a purpose: That purpose is the function of a behavior. When we understand the function, we can work to create the correct positive behavior intervention !

To operationally define a target behavior

What can we see?

This definition must be

Observable

Measurable

Understanding how behaviors function requires an operational definition.

The potato test: If a potato can do it, then it's not a behavior

Commonly occurring behaviors operationally defined

Pinching: Pinching is defined as any occurrence of making contact with another persons skin with fingers shaped like forceps

Throwing objects: Propelling objects at least one foot from their original location by movement of hand or arm

Process that identifies the function of the target behavior.

​

Leads to the development of a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP)

1. Define target behavior with operational definition.

​

2. Analyze target behavior through data collection

Direct Observation: Using the ABC model to identify the consequences which are maintaining the behavior

​

Indirect observation: Record reviews, surveys, checklists, and interviews.

3. Use data to create a hypothesis statement

​

The Hypothesis statement is a summary of what prompts a behavior. This is the description of the function of a target behavior.

Once we know the function of the target behavior, we can identify the proper intervention for the replacement behavior

The competing behaviors pathway model shows the link from the FBA to the development of the BIP

​

The BIP is an organized plan for teaching more appropriate behavior

​

The replacement behavior must serve the same function, but it will be a more positive one

​

​

Teaching Replacement Behavior

General education classroom- These are the supports giving to all students.

​

​

Goal: Prevention of challenging behavior by using evidence-based practices

​

Selected at-risk students who are not responding to tier one interventions- More intense and individualized instruction. Behavioral contracts, self-monitoring, FBA (as preventative)

By teaching cognitive and metacognitive strategies, students learn strategies that address a specific academic task or social/behavioral concern. Teachers give explicit instruction, modeling, guided practice, and provide feedback

Students not responding to tier two receive more intense one on one instruction. FBA, BIP, individual counseling,
