Practical FBA Process…D.A.S.H
• Define behavior in observable & measurable terms
• Ask about behavior by interviewing staff & student:– Specify routines where & when behaviors occur– Summarize where, when, & why behaviors occur
• See the behavior– Observe the behavior during routines specified– Observe to verify summary from interviews
• Hypothesize a final summary of where, when & why behaviors occur
(Lohman & Borgmeier, 2010)
8
Why Practical Functional Behavioral Assessment?
“Since 1997, FBA has not been implemented widely in schools. Not due to lack of knowledge, but to practicality of use.”
(Lohman & Borgmeier, 2010)
“Challenges schools face today are not finding what works, but implementing what works.”
(Fixsen, Naoom, Blasé, Fiedman, & Wallace, 2005)
9
Why Practical FBA Materials?
Lohman & Borgmeier (2010) demonstrated:•School personnel can conduct “valid” FBAs for students with mild to moderate behavioral problems•The utility and acceptability of practical FBA training methods to train school personnel in schools to conduct FBA•The utility of the FACTS interview tool to guide FBAs, but direct observation is needed

FBA Procedural Adequacy • An FBA Procedural Adequacy Checklist was
used to rate each FBA on the following criteria:– Interviews were conducted with a staff member who
worked with the student during routines where problem behavior occurred
– Problem behavior was defined in observable and measureable terms
– A routine was prioritized for direct observation– An antecedent event was defined as triggering the
problem behavior– Only one maintaining function of the problem behavior
was identified
100% of the FBAs conducted met all of these criteria
100% Inter-rater Agreement
13
Accuracy of Summary Statements from Practical FBA Process
• 9 out of 10 of the summary statements hypothesized by the FACTS interviews with teachers were verified by results of experimental functional analysis
• The one FACTS summary statement that was not verified by FA actually resulted in further clarification from direct observation
14
2.0 Competing Behavior Pathways & Building a Behavior Intervention Plan
15
Team Development of Behavior Support Plan
• Developed based on information gained from a completed FBA summary
• Team includes people closely involved with the student– Teacher, behavior specialist, parent,
other staff
16
“You should not propose to reduce a problem behavior
without also identifying alternative, desired behaviors
a person should perform instead of the problem
behavior.”
(O’Neill et al., 1997, p.71)

Meet Jane• Jane is a 2nd grade student
• Problem behaviors:
– Refusing to do work
– Throwing tantrums (whining, pounding her hands on her desk, and throwing papers on the floor)
• Behaviors occur most often in math class when she is given a math assignment
• After she throws a tantrum:
– She is sent to the back table where she talks with other students who have completed the assignment
20
A Little More About Jane…
• Jane can complete assignments fairly quickly when she is held in from recess and has to do her own work
• Her problem behaviors are more likely after she has missed recess for that day

Behavior Support Planning:Changes to A B C
• (Antecedents) – Irrelevant – Can we change things so that whatever set off the problem behavior is no longer an issue?
• (Behavior) – Inefficient – Can we teach an alternative behavior that gets results more quickly or easily than the problem behavior did?
• (Consequence) – Ineffective – Can whatever was “rewarding” the problem behavior be discontinued or switched to reward appropriate behavior instead?

26
What Are Setting Events?
• Events that happen outside of the immediate routine (at home or earlier in the day) that commonly make problem behavior more likely or worse.
• Something in the environment that “sets the stage” for problem behavior.
27
What Are Setting Events?Setting events will vary greatly from individual to individual. The list below contains examples of variables that might serve as setting events.• Medications were changed • Slept fewer or more hours than usual • Irregular or unpredictable schedule/routine • Chaotic or demanding environment • Missing the school bus• Was the target of verbal or physical aggression from a peer or sibling • Missed meals
28
Setting Event Strategies
• Build in strategies to:• Diminish the effect of setting events• Decrease the likelihood that problem behavior will
occur
• Example:– If a setting event is conflict at home before
coming to school, a setting event manipulation could be to:• Build in a morning check-in with an adult to
build a positive relationship• Schedule a fun activity with student before work

Antecedent Manipulations
• Preventing problem behavior and supporting desired behavior
– Preventing – Change triggers that set off the problem behavior to make the problem behavior irrelevant
– Supporting – Provide prompts and supports to set up and promote replacement or desired behavior

33
Teaching Behavior
• Teach replacement (i.e., alternative) behavior and desired behavior that gets results more quickly or easily to make the problem behavior inefficient
• Teach any academic or social skill deficits that the student may have
34
Identifying the “Replacement” Behavior
• An appropriate replacement behavior:
– Serves the same function as the problem behavior
– Is as, or more efficient, than the problem behavior
– Is socially acceptable
35
Example: Teaching Behavior
• Let’s teach Jane to raise her hand and ask for a break instead of throwing a tantrum to get a break
• By teaching Jane an easier, alternative behavior to get what she wants, we’re making the problem behavior inefficient
• Jane will need frequent practice, pre-corrections, and prompts to help her get in the habit of using the alternative behavior
36
Teaching Behavior for Attention Seeking
• Teach the behavior to use instead of the problem behavior.
• Teach the student more appropriate ways to get adult or peer attention.
• Identify and teach specific examples of ways to ask for attention from adults or peers– Raise hand and wait patiently for teacher to call on you– Ask a peer what they did over the week-end versus
teasing them to as an attempt to interact with them

Teaching Behavior for Attention Seeking
• Teach behaviors to use instead of the problem behavior or desired behaviors
• Teach student more appropriate ways ask for help from teacher or peers
– Red card/Green card
– “I need a break” card
– Access to a peer mentor
– Skip problem and move on until teacher or peer can help
39
Teaching Behavior for Avoiding Tasks
•Provide academic instruction and support to address any skill deficits the student may have
– More focused instruction in class
– Additional instructional group
– Special Education support for academic deficit
– Additional support and practice at home
– Additional assessment to identify specific skill deficits

Consequence Strategies
• Change consequences that have supported rather than eliminated the problem behavior
– Do NOT allow the negative behavior to pay off for the student, put the negative behavior on extinction
– Reward appropriate behavior to make the problem behavior ineffective
43
Example: Consequence Strategies
• We must refuse to (C) let Jane avoid math tasks for (B) throwing a tantrum & instead prompt her to raise her hand and (C) reward her for (B) raising her hand and asking for a break
• By not providing Jane with what she wants when she throws a tantrum, we are making the problem behavior ineffective
44
Example: Consequence Strategies
• It is crucial that we work hard to reinforce Jane for engaging in the alternative behavior, or she is likely to go back to and even escalate the problem behavior
15:1
45
Consequence Strategies for Attention Seeking
• Respond quickly if student seeks attention appropriately (i.e. asks question in normal speaking tone vs. yelling)
• Give the student frequent attention, praise, or reinforcer for positive behavior
• Eliminate/minimize the amount of attention provided to a student for engaging in problem behavior
– Limit verbal interaction—it’s attention!!– Create a signal to prompt student to stop the
problem behavior– Avoid power struggles

47
Consequence Strategies for Avoiding Tasks
• Respond quickly if student asks for help or for a break
• Give the student frequent attention, praise, or reinforcer for being on-task, genuinely trying hard, completing work, or for asking for a break or help appropriately
• Eliminate/minimize the amount of missed instructional time or work provided to a student for engaging in problem behavior
– However, need to make sure student is capable of doing work…or provide support/instruction so student can complete the work
48
Consequence Strategies for Avoiding Tasks
Sometimes students need additional encouragement to engage in the desired behavior…..
When using additional incentives to encourage student positive behavior consider:
•Free homework passes
•Reduced numbers of problems
•Portions of work already completed
•Frequent self checks

3.0 Implementing and Maintaining the Behavior Intervention Plan
61
Implementing Behavior Plans Effectively
Ensure a team is in place that is capable of managing interventions by:•Providing assistance with implementation of the plan
•Providing support to both teaching staff and student during initial implementation
•Selecting appropriate forms/tools for collecting data
•Reviewing data at least bi-weekly
•Modifying the intervention when necessary
•Fading out the intervention when appropriate
62
Implementing Behavior Plans Effectively
Designate 1-2 team members to thoroughly train any staff member directly working with the student how to implement the Behavior Intervention Plan with fidelity
Team members are responsible for ensuring the rest of the building staff are informed of the plan and know how to respond to the student whenever they come in contact with the student.
63
Implementing Behavior Plans Effectively
Designate 1-2 team members with flexible roles to assist and check in with teaching staff during initial implementation of the plan.
If necessary these team members may need to model or coach various strategies and behavioral practices that are included in the plan.
64
Implementing Behavior Plans Effectively
Designate 1-2 team members with flexible roles to assist the primary teacher (or a teacher the student is compatible with) in reviewing the plan with the student.
Review the purpose of the plan and describe the expected outcomes and goals of the plan with the student.
If the plan has a self-monitoring component, review how the student will be expected to monitor their behavior and provide practice.

65
Implementing Behavior Plans Effectively
• It is generally recommended that Behavior Intervention Plans are implemented with integrity for approximately 2 weeks, even when it may appear as though the Plan may not be working
• It is not uncommon to see a spike in the undesired behavior, also known as an “extinction burst” just prior to the undesired behavior decreasing

67
Maintain the Plan• Ensure that data is being collected daily
(progress monitoring)
• Look for reasonable improvements in behavior (acknowledge baby steps, it may take time for behavior to change)
• Maintain the plan if it is effective, but needs to be continued
• Modify the plan after ensuring treatment integrity (plan was followed with fidelity) and adequate time (approximately 2 weeks)

Monitoring & Evaluation
“Each plan should specify observable outcomes that are monitored and used to assess if the plan is being effective. The evaluation section of the plan should indicate what will be monitored and
how often the team will meet to review the evaluation information.”
(Horner, Sugai, Todd, Lewis-Palmer; 2000)
74
Monitor Behavior Progress
• It is essential that progress is tracked, graphed, and reported to all involved
• Determine how progress monitoring data will be collected (e.g., data collection form, direct observation, frequency counts, etc.)
• A easy to read graph should include:– Baseline Data– Goal and Goal Line– Progress Data– Indications when changes are made to the plan/intervention

Evaluation Process for Individual Students
• Document data decision rules.
– Indicators that a student is responding.
– Indicators that a student is not responding.
• Review data weekly.
• Make decisions based on data.
– Stay the course.
– Intensify/modify support.
– Fade.
• Ensure that changes and updates are well-documented and shared will everyone involved with providing support.
82
Individual Student Outcome Data
• Assess the fidelity of implementation at least bi-weekly
• Self-monitoring checklist
• Direct observation
• Review of permanent products (point cards completed, etc)
83
Individual Student Outcomes
• Assess the effectiveness of the behavior support plan at least bi-weekly
• Collect data daily
– Points earned on a card
– Teacher ratings
– Office Discipline Referrals
84
Reconvene and Rewrite as Needed
• The Summary Statement on the Competing Pathways form is a “Testable Hypothesis”– It may be found that something was not
correct, was not fully investigated, or that the function was not hit on accurately.
• Plan to reconvene to check on progress and modify as necessary
• A Behavior Intervention Plan should include a place to document when checks on progress will be made and when the group with reconvene.

87
Monitor Fidelity of BIP Implementation
• Fidelity of implementation is NOT an evaluation of an individual teacher or staff member
• It is an evaluation of the systems
• If fidelity is low, it is typically related to a problem with the systems, not the individual staff member
