  4. How Behavior Works

  5. There’s so much more than what you see on the surface

  6. The ABCs • Behavior – observable response • Antecedents – what happens before the behavior (can function to trigger behavior) • Consequences – what happens after (can reduce or increase the likelihood of behavior through the principles of reinforcement and punishment)

  7. Can increase the Likelihood of Behavior Triggers Can decrease the Likelihood of Behavior

  8. Setting Events Conditions or circumstances that increase the likelihood of problem behavior Setting events “set the stage…”

  9. Setting Events • Can be due to social, environmental or physiological factors • May or may not immediately proceed the behavior • Examples may include: lack of sleep, sickness, medication changes, stressful experiences, cultural issues, history and family experiences

  14. How do you determine function? Be (or find) an objective observer Interview other people in the child’s life

  15. Developing effective intervention strategies through the use of… Behavior Analysis and Intervention Summary (BAIS)

  16. Let’s use the BAIS to develop an effective multicomponent intervention to help mom with Jermaine at the Pigglywiggly
