Behavior is learned.
“Children are not born bad or with bad behavior, they learn it!”Child has learned that problem behavior can be more efficient
and more effective than prosocial behavior in producing
desired outcome.
Behavior problems occur due to either skill deficit or
performance deficit andphysiological and
environmental conditions set up, set off, or maintain
problem behavior
All behavior has a function or “reason” why
it occurs
Systematically examining the context in which
behaviors problems leads to more effective strategies by addressing the function of
the behavior
Core Assumptions
Behavior Change8
First step to
changing behavior is understanding behavior
and environmental conditions.

Conditions that set
the stage for a
behavior (slow
triggers)
Preceding events that trigger a behavior
(fast triggers)
An action you can see and
count
Any events (unplanned/
natural consequences or
planned/program consequences) that
occur after a behavior

behavior: to obtain/get something or
to avoid/ escape

EXAMPLE SCENARIO
During reading instruction, Bob’s teacher asks him to read a paragraph aloud about
birds. Bob struggles to read the words and yells, “I don’t want to sit here talking
about dumb things!” When prompted, he throws his materials on the floor and puts
his head down. The teacher spends a few minutes talking with Bob to calm him
down, while another student reads aloud. Bob behaves this way most often during
reading instruction. It occurs more frequently when Bob is uninterested in the topic
of the stories and is called on to read aloud during class.

Preventing• Eliminating or neutralizing the
impact of a “slow trigger”
• Removing, blocking, neutralizing

• Interspersing difficult/unpleasant

• Adding events that promote
desired behavior (e.g., choice)
Teaching• Modifying/eliminating problem
behavior by addressing function
• Teaching Alternative/ replacement
skills that serve the same function
of the problem behavior
• Teaching Coping/tolerance skills
that help student manage
emotions and behavior during
difficult situations
• Teaching Personal skills including
social, communication,
organizational skills that prevent
the need for problem behavior
Responding• Delivering consequences

12EXAMPLE SCENARIO
During reading instruction, Bob’s teacher asks him to read a paragraph aloud about birds. Bob struggles to
read the words and yells, “I don’t want to sit here talking about dumb things!” When prompted, he throws
his materials on the floor and puts his head down. The teacher spends a few minutes talking with Bob to
calm him down, while another student reads aloud. Bob behaves this way most often during reading
instruction. It occurs more frequently when Bob is uninterested in the topic of the stories and is called on to
read aloud during class.
Preventing Strategies• Survey Bob to identify topics of
interest and provide reading
material that matches his interests
• Provide choice of which
paragraph to read
• Premack – if you read the
passage and answer the questions
than you can earn a 5 minute
walk with preferred staff
Teaching Strategies
• Teach self-advocacy skills
including asking for help or
asking to take a break
• Teach coping/tolerance
skills including patience
with reading material that
does not match interest
Responding Strategies• Reinforce attempts to read
material with behavior
specific praise
• Follow through with and
reinforce requests for break
• Follow through with Premack
if earned

Behavior Change13
How do we identify
the behavior building
blocks and develop
an intervention plan?
Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA)
FBA is… a student-centered team process
used to understand the student’s behavior within a context
used to identify strategies for supporting the student in achieving important academic and behavioral outcomes
Goal of an FBA is to identifying the events that reliably predict and maintain problem behavior
FBA primarily results in… Clear and measurable definition of target behavior
Identified setting events (slow triggers) & antecedents (fast triggers) for target behavior
Identified maintaining consequence for target behavior
Perceived function of target behavior
Testable hypothesis or summary statement
Function-based intervention plan

Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA)
There is NOT a single standard way to complete an FBA
Information for FBA gathered through indirect and direct methods
Pennsylvania Training and Technical Assistance Network (2015)
15
CONTINUUM OF EFFECTIVE BEHAVIORAL ASSESSMENT AND SUPPORT
Individuals with mild or no problem behaviors (80 – 85%)
Individuals at risk for problem behaviors (5 - 15%)
Individuals with chronic/serious problem behaviors (3 - 7%)
Individuals with dangerous problem behaviors (1 - 2%)

Requirements at all Levels of FBA
• Identify, define, & measure the target behavior
• Identify setting events (slow triggers) for the target behavior
• Identify antecedent events (fast triggers) for the target behavior
• Identify consequences that maintain the target behavior
• Identify the function of the target behavior
• Formulate hypothesis/Summary statement
• Develop function-based intervention plan or positive behavior support plan
17
Consent
Parental consent is REQUIRED to conduct an initial evaluation of a student to determine eligibility for special education & related services
Parental consent is REQUIRED to conduct a reevaluation of a student with an IEP or 504 plan to determine the nature & extent of special education & related services
For students who do NOT have an IEP/504 Plan, teams using previously obtained data (e.g., schoolwide screening and/or disciplinary data), consent is NOT required
In this case, the need for consent is determined by district policy
Parental involvement in the process is essential and strongly encouraged
Pennsylvania Training and Technical Assistance Network (2015)

Problem solving at the individual level
Initial Line of Inquiry (ILI) Process19
What is the Initial Line of Inquiry?
Indirect/simple FBA process
Approximately 1 hour to complete
Promotes “function-based” thinking
Shifts focus from within child to environmental
context
Incorporates team-based problem-solving
Informant report (indirect)
20

11
What is the Initial Line of Inquiry?
Identify environmental factors that influence behavior
Develop a statement of behavioral function
Develop a testable hypothesis to explain behavior
Goal is function-based intervention planning
Preventing setting events & antecedents
Teaching replacement behaviors
Responding to prosocial & challenging behavior
21
Ways to use the ILI Process
Screening/Initial Assessment
Problem solving process to identify function-based
interventions for students who do not respond to Tier 2
Standard Treatment Protocol Interventions (e.g., CICO)
Tier 2.5/Tier 3

Key Considerations for Implementation of ILI
Facilitator with behavioral expertise is key!
Include all key stakeholders
