Functional Behaviour Assessment: Analysing the Function of Behaviour to Guide Support

Functional Behaviour Assessment: Analysing the Function of Behaviour to Guide Support
thumb

Overview

Behaviour change requires an understanding of the reasons why a particular behaviour occurs. Determining these reasons requires an objective, logical process of analysis. Behaviour change will not be maintained if the function of the original behaviour of concern is not central to the supports provided.


This evidence-informed workshop is designed to increase the participant’s understanding of the process of establishing the function of a behaviour of concern and determining the supports required for the individual.

  1. Definition of behaviours of concern
  2. Factors which contribute to these behaviour
  3. Objectively describing the behaviour
  4. Precipitating factors
  5. Responses and reactions following the occurrence of a behaviour
  6. The functions of behaviour
  7. Environmental supports
  8. Replacement behaviours
  9. Rewards and reinforcement
  10. Reviewing the plan
  11. Q & A


Course Objectives

On completion of the workshop, participants will be able to:

  1. Identify factors to consider prior to completing an analysis of a behaviour of concern

  3. Objectively describe a range of behaviours of concern
  4. Define precipitating factors
  5. Describe reactions to behaviours of concern
  6. List the primary functions of behaviours of concern
  7. Identify environmental supports that will reduce the likelihood that behaviours of concern will occur
  8. Generate possible replacement behaviours which have the same function as the behaviour of concern
