Comprehending Functional Behavior Assessment Steps

By Shirley Wagner


Many grown-ups take their time trying to study the young people around them. It is easier for them to notice any unusual changes that may occur. Involving them in activities give them an opportunity to assess their character and determine if there is need to raise the alarm. Functional behavior assessment steps are then implemented if the need arises.

The initial step involves paying attention to the person in question and determining any unusual changes in character. The change must be one that is most likely to be causing problems to the mental and emotional growth of this person. This founds the focus point of the tests. An example of this is any form of repetitive or disruptive attitudes that seem to be persistent.

You ought to determine if the changes are naturally being triggered. This can best show when the change is at its best. In a scenario where the change noted poses any danger to the individual, the immediate action must be taken. The trigger must be determined correctly to avoid wasting time on something that is not an issue.

A few factors will impact on the maintenance of character. Among them is the need to avoid people, scenarios or tasks. People will find themselves behaving in some way to get away. On the contrary, it may also be to capture the attention of a particular person, peers, teachers or siblings. They will be uneasy around these people and end up not being natural.

After it is known what the person is seeking to achieve by this change, a hypothesis can be developed, and potential solutions developed. A good example is trying to give temporal access to the materials or people that you have established as the goal of this change. Monitor their stimulation and reactions when they feel right about it.

With the above, you are now at a position where you can proceed to seek the intervention of any necessary persons to have an impact on the character gradually. If any positive change is noted, then collecting data on progress is vital. The data collected here, however, is much less and is done with slightly less intensity as was done during collection of baseline data.

Among the principles of understanding and successfully managing character, change is the proper interpretation of the impact of the selected approach to the individual in question. A reinforced approach will undoubtedly result in a worsened character. Since you have already learned a few things about the person you are dealing with, then you ought to be in a position to know how best to handle the situation.

The whole process and approaches must be aimed at achieving the desired change. For individuals with mental conditions or autism, the communication abilities may be a challenge to the progress and success of the procedure, but an expert should be able to come up with a way to tackle this for the good of everyone involved.
