Document Summary
Bhs402- week 2- monday january 16 th , 2017. General facts from class (regarding the challenging bx article) Drowning is the #1 cause of death in children with autism. Define a rationale on why you chose the behaviour to decrease (for example: I chose to decrease this child"s humming behaviour because it gives the mom extreme migraines). Challenging behaviours are going to evoke a lot of feelings in us (it is tough to watch self harm on another individual). We can determine function-based treatment (compared to back in the day with the wild wild west ). Look at areas of strength (don"t be a debbie downer ) Behaviour in someone is not random; there is always a reason behind them. Rationalize in your paper on why you asked what you asked. Activity does not have to be specific to article (ex: extinction as a topic, not just about the article)
