- This lesson will demonstrate how to link functional information with behavioral support strategies.
- The behavioral support plan will describe how the teacher, family, and other support personnel will change their behavior instead of focusing only on changing the student's behavior.
- Look for patterns that appear across different sources of information.
- Construct your hypothesis statement by identifying the setting events, antecedents, problem behavior, and consequences related to problem behavior.
- Build multicomponent interventions related to each of the major elements of the hypothesis statement.
- Part of positive behavioral support is allowing your perspective to grow, while learning more about the environment around you.
- Setting events temporarily alter the value of reinforcers and punishers within the student's environment.
- There are many types of interventions that may result from the problem solving process.
- The next step is to develop strategies based on the information you have gathered about the events that immediately precede problem behavior.
- Intervention examples may include teaching a student new skills.
- When teaching a new response, make sure the new behavior is easier and more efficient than the problem behavior.
- An important part of the problem solving process is to focus on how consequences should change to make the desired behavior effectively compete with problem behavior.
- The next step is to produce a written document that describes the behavioral support plan you have generated.
- Effective behavioral support plans should be based on the principles of human behavior.
- It is important to remember that behavioral support plans must be consistent with the values, skills, and resources available.
