Legal Issues

• Use of FBA and Positive Behavior Supports are
  included in federal law (IDEIA)
• When to develop
• when students behavior impedes his or her or
  others ability to learn
• when behavioral goals/objectives in the IEP are
  not enough
• prior or subsequent to manifestation
  determination decisions
• when behavioral/instructional approaches
  specified in the IEP are needed (Ca. Ed. Code)
• Conclusion Addressing behavioral barriers to
  student success is a requirement

Selecting an Intervention

• Goal of determining function is to make a good
  intervention decision
• Teams have shown difficulty in implementing
  functional assessment results
• The replacement behavior should
• Serve the same function as the problem behavior
• Or
• Eliminate the need to engage in the problem
  behavior

GOAL OF POSITIVE BEHAVIOR SUPPORT

• Not to Punish Challenging Behavior
• But to Make Challenging Behavior
• Irrelevant
• Inefficient
• Ineffective (ONeill, et al., 1997)
• To do this we must view the Person with Empathy
• And view the Behavior Functionally

View the Person with Empathy

Billie Holiday

• You've got to have something to eat and a little
  love in your life before you can hold still for
  any damn body's sermon on how to behave.
