Although they show themselves as tantrums and tendency to violence, some cases may also show reactions like long sobbing fits.
What is a target behavior?
Definition. Target behavior is the behavior identified to be changed, the prescribed behavior. This behavior can be defined either by function or by topography. A functionally defined target behavior identifies a response by its effect on the person or the environment.
Which is a key to successful behavior change?
They found that the three key drivers of behaviour change are motivation and capability, which are internal conditions, and opportunity, which is an external condition. These are all interlinked and can influence each other.
What are the 4 basic functions of behavior?
The four functions of behavior are sensory stimulation, escape, access to attention and access to tangibles. BCBA Megan Graves explains the four functions with a description and example for each function. Sensory Stimulation: “A person’s own movements/actions feel good to that individual.
What are replacement behaviors?
A replacement behavior is the behavior you WANT students to exhibit in place of the behavior you are trying to eliminate. As an example, you have a student (and you know you do) who blurts out. You want to eliminate the blurting, so you teach the replacement behavior of raising a hand and waiting to be called upon.
What does behavioral shaping involve?
Shaping is the process of reinforcing successively closer and closer approximations to a desired terminal behavior. For example, a child learns to pull itself up, to stand, to walk and to finally move about through reinforcement of slightly exceptional instances of behaviors.
What are replacement strategies?
Replacement Behaviors is a strategy where the teacher positively reinforces a student for using a desired behavior (e.g. raising a hand) instead of a non-desired behavior (e.g. shouting out in class).

A replacement behavior is a behavior you want to replace an unwanted target behavior. Focusing on the problem behavior may just reinforce the behavior, especially if the consequence (reinforcer) is attention. It also helps you teach the behavior that you want to see in the target behavior’s place.
What is a functionally equivalent replacement behavior?
Definition. Functionally equivalent alternative behaviors, or functionally equivalent replacement behaviors, are desirable/acceptable behaviors that achieve the same outcome as a less desirable problem behavior. This requires completion of a functional behavior assessment.
What are some strategies for helping students develop new behavior skills?
