Decreasing and Managing Problem Behavior Workshop

Decreasing and Managing Problem Behavior Workshop

THIS WORKSHOP IS DESIGNED FOR BCBAS, BCABAS, TEACHERS, PARENTS, AND ALL WHO ARE INVOLVED IN REMOTE CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT FOR VARIOUS LEARNERS, INCLUDING THOSE ON THE AUTISM SPECTRUM.

During this one-hour presentation, strategies are discussed on how to change problem behavior. We start out reviewing the three-term contingency which provides us with the information we need to change problem behavior. How we give instructions alone can change behavior. Strategies on how to give instructions is presented. Next, how to identify why problem behavior occurs is discussed (functions of behavior). This tells us the hypothesized reason the behavior is occurring. Once we know why the problem behavior is occurring, we need to come up with a plan. A plan tells us how to prevent the problem behavior from occurring, what to do when the problem behavior occurs and what to do once the behavior is deescalating. Finally, we need to monitor the behavior in order to determine if our plan is working.

  1. Learn how to identify why problem behaviors occur.
