PYRAMID PLUS APPROACH
Session 17: Functional Behavior Assessment
Learning Objectives
Participants will gain an understanding of the purpose and function of behavior interventions
Participants will learn the components of ABC’s and how to apply those to shaping behaviors
Participants will learn the importance of identifying functions of behavior
Participants will gain tools for conducting FBA’s and will practice using these tools
Intensive Interventions

Benjamin Franklin…
“The definition of Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and then expecting different results.”

Perception
Who has challenging behavior?
Who’s problem is it?…

Terms
ABA – Applied Behavior Analysis• Scientific study of behavior• Focuses on both biology and environmental
factors• Components Include: measurable, baseline logic
(with baseline data and able to be replicated), assessment/data driven
LOVAAS Model- of ABA PBS – Positive Behavior Support
Purpose of Behavior Intervention
Meet function of the behavior by teaching appropriate replacement skills.
1. Need to decrease inappropriate behavior
2. Need to increase appropriate behavior
Three Means…for Inappropriate Behavior- Part 1
1. Make the problem behavior irrelevant: decrease or eliminate the need to engage in the behavior.
2. Make the problem behavior inefficient: provide the student with a replacement behavior that serves the same function.
3. Make the problem behavior ineffective: do not allow the child to obtain what he or she wants through inappropriate behavior.
Crone & Horner (2003)
Three Means…for Appropriate Behavior – Part 21. Make the appropriate behavior relevant:
decrease or eliminate the need to engage in the behavior
2. Make the appropriate behavior efficient: provide the student with a replacement behavior that serves the same function
3. Make the appropriate behavior effective: do not allow the child to obtain what he or she wants through inappropriate behavior
Positive Behavior Support:The ABC’s of Behavior
Behavior
A specific action that a person does that can be observed
• Feelings Words vs. Descriptive Words
• Learned vs. Reflective Antecedent
Setting for the behavior, the “trigger”, could be a change in the physical surroundings, social circumstances, or behavior of others
Consequence
What happens immediately after the behavior
Parent Skills Training Worksheet
Activity
Emphasis…
Every communicative behavior can be described by the form and function.
Form: the behavior used to communicate
Function: the reason or purpose of the communicative behavior• To get• To get away
Madison
Madison is in housekeeping, putting on high heels and a hat. Emily moves into the area and selects a purse from the dress-ups. Madison shouts “no” and bites Emily. A teacher comes over, she asks Madison to go to the thinking chair and takes Emily to the bathroom to look at the bite. After 4 minutes, Madison leaves the thinking chair and returns to housekeeping. She grabs the purse Emily had selected and continues to play. Emily leaves the bathroom with the teacher and then begins an art activity where the teacher is present.

Trigger Behavior Maintaining Consequence
Another child moves to area and gets a toy (purse).
Shouts “no,” bites child.
Function:Avoid sharing
the purse.
Sent to “thinking chair,” other child consoled. 4 minutes later, Madison leaves chair and returns to play with purse.

Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)
The FBA is the central feature of PBS
FBA is a process for gathering information about problem behavior and the environmental conditions that predict and maintain it (Crone & Horner, 2003)
The goal of FBA is to improve the effectiveness and the efficiency of the behavior support plan (BSP).
Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)
The process involves gathering information about the problem behavior, the situations where the problem behavior is most and least likely to occur, and the consequences that reward and maintain the problem behavior
A major outcome of FBA is a hypothesis statement that identifies the function(s) that the problem behavior serves for the person
Horner et al., 2006
Outcomes of FBA
Description of child’s problem behavior (B)
Identification of consequent conditions that maintain the problem behavior (C)
Identification of antecedent conditions that set (and do not set) the occasion for the problem behavior (A)
Production of hypothesis (Function)(Horner et al., 2006)
Hypotheses Statement
Triggers of the challenging behavior
Description of the challenging behavior
Responses that maintain the challenging behavior
Purpose of the behavior
Not Sure About the Hypothesis? What would make the challenging
behavior stop? Is it something you would provide or allow the child to access? Or is there something to remove? Or can you allow the child to leave?
If still unsure, collect more data in the same context.
Some challenging behavior may have the same form, but serve multiple functions.
Some challenging behaviors may begin around one function (e.g., escape) and continue to serve another function (e.g., gain attention).

Use case studies to practice with assessment tools in small groups.
Activity
Old Way New Way
General intervention for all behavior problems
Intervention is reactive
Focus on behavior reduction
Quick Fix
Intervention matched to purpose of the behavior
Intervention is proactive
Focus on teaching new skills
Long term interventions
Albert Einstein …
“If at first the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it.”
Major Message
Behavior serves a function
Behavior can be shaped
FBA is not a bad word or an “F” word
Data shapes intervention plan
Old way vs. new way
What went well today?What needs improvement?
Quality Improvement
Thought Seeds
What will I change in my behavior in regard to Functional Assessment?
What will I apply to the families and the children with whom I work in regard to Functional Assessment?
What will I take back to my team/co-workers in regard to Functional Assessment?
