FBA – Functional FBA – Functional Behavioral AssessmentBehavioral Assessment
The process of gathering information about a student’s behavior to determine the need for a Behavioral Intervention Plan. An approach that
incorporates a variety of techniques and strategies to diagnose the causes and to
identify likely interventions intended to address problem behavior
Performance deficitPerformance deficitA behavior that the student knows how to perform, but does not consistently do so.
IEP – Individualized IEP – Individualized Education ProgramEducation Program
A plan to address the specific needs of a student with a disability to appropriate access
to general education, in the least restrictive environment, and .
MagnitudeMagnitudeThe force or power of a behavior
Target behaviorTarget behaviorAn observable and measurable action identified
for intervention.
AntecedentAntecedentRelevant events that precede a target behavior.
Data driven decision Data driven decision makingmaking
Systematically collecting and analyzing various types of data to guide a range of decisions to
help improve the success of students.
Token EconomyToken Economya system of behavior modification based on the
systematic positive reinforcement of target behavior by earning objects or symbols that can
be exchanged for other reinforcers.
Skill deficitSkill deficitA behavior that a student does not know how to
perform.
Positive supportPositive supportAdditional services, strategies, or resources
needed to address needs which are contributing to an undesirable behavior
ConsequenceConsequenceWhat the student derives (gets) from the
behavior, not the punishment that occurred.
LatencyLatencyThe amount of time between the antecedent for
the behavior and the behavior itself
Teacher-student gameTeacher-student gameA brief intervention designed to help teachers
establish clear expectations for engaged academic behavior and effective transitioning
between activities.
PunishmentPunishmentweakens a behavior because a negative
condition is introduced or experienced as a consequence of the behavior
PBIS – Positive Behavior PBIS – Positive Behavior Interventions &SupportsInterventions &Supports
The behavioral component of Response to Intervention (see RTI).
TMPRTMPRStudent behavioral change requires adults to
Teach, Model, Prompt, and Reinforce expected behaviors
DurationDurationThe amount of time a behavior lasts
Replacement behaviorReplacement behaviorA more socially acceptable alternative option to an undesired action that is to be taught to meet
the identified function of the target behavior.
Peer triadPeer triadA group of teachers who observe and provide
feedback to each other several times each month in order to regularly monitor and improve
methods.
Positive ReinforcementPositive Reinforcementthe process of increasing the rate or probability
of a behavior by pairing it with a desirable stimulus
Home/school TeamHome/school TeamA small group of stakeholders (including a
family member) interested in and relevant to a child’s education who meet to discuss and
evaluate current data, supports, and programming.
RTI - Response To RTI - Response To InterventionIntervention
Is a framework for introducing academic and behavioral interventions to students. Typically 85-90% of students respond to Universal Level
intervention, 10-15% of students will require Secondary Level interventions, and 3-5% of
students will require Tertiary Level interventions
InterventionInterventionPromoting positive classroom behaviors by
assisting, modeling, demonstrating, practicing, and rewarding
appropriate behavior
TopographyTopographyHow a behavior looks (the physical dimension)
Restrictive disciplinary Restrictive disciplinary measure - measure -
Consequences for inappropriate behavior which limit or restrict student’s access to peers,
education, and/or opportunities.
In a BIP, professionals must list the consequences as well as strategies/criteria for
their use (detention, suspension, physical restraint, isolated time out, etc.)
FunctionFunctionThe reason why a student engages in a
particular behavior. The benefit s/he is getting from the behavior. There are two options: to
obtain (get) or to avoid (escape).
FrequencyFrequencyHow often a specific behavior occurs.
Negative Negative ReinforcementReinforcement
a particular behavior is strengthened by the consequence of the stopping or avoiding of a
negative condition
Behavior Intervention Behavior Intervention Plan - BIPPlan - BIP
An agreement that teaches and supports replacement behaviors and decreases or
eliminates opportunities for the student to engage in behavior that hinders positive
academic results
