Document Summary
Determine whether medical/psychological reasons are present that contribute to the behaviour. Determine whether the problem is due to a skill or performance deficit.

Develop appropriate behaviours to replace inappropriate ones. Fba is not a specific procedure; it is a perceptual style that guides problem solving and decision-making. Functional assessments can be used to address challenging behaviour with: students with or without disabilities, all age groups. In a variety of settings: during a variety of activities, with different types and severities of disability, with a range of challenging behaviours. Identify behaviour and define in specific, observable and measurable terms. Identify times when the behaviour is most and least likely to occur.
