Product Description:

The purpose of this packet is to provide information about conducting a problem-solving process for challenging behavior.? This process, called Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA), is meant to examine problem behavior in the environments in which the behavior occurs, and determine the meaning (or function) that the problem behavior serves for the child.? Using a team-based problem solving approach, FBA will lead to the development of meaningful interventions that will prevent future episodes of problem behavior, teach the child appropriate replacement behaviors, and teach caregivers different ways of responding to the child.? It is our hope that this information will assist teachers and other caregivers in developing effective supports and interventions for children who exhibit the most severe forms of problem behavior.
