 Great resource to address behavior problems November 18, 2001

This book is a fabulous resource for anyone working with children or adults who display inappropriate behaviors. Special Education teachers, administrators, Behavior Specialists, Counselors, Psychologists and people providing direct care will benefit from the hands-on tool. The book gives sample Behavioral Support Plans (Behavior Management Plans) derived from an excellent Functional Assessment Interview (FAI) tool. Readers will learn how to target the problem behavior and provide measurable objectives to address the behavior. A "must have" for anyone providing support to students or adults with behaviors and/or MR/DD.

As my school district has been learning how to conduct functional behavior assessments, this is the book we keep passing around and referring to. It is practical, useful and the information is research based.
Thorough; Easy to both read and implement. June 27, 1999

I use this text in my college course on "Behavioral Assessment and Positive Behavior Support" for beginning special education teachers. It breaks down the process of completing a Functional Assessment and Functional Analysis in an easy-to-understand manner. The examples and the forms included are extremely helpful for all levels of behavioral intervention.

I'm a Board Certified Behavior Analyst. I've taught FBAs to graduate students, undergraduates, in Continuing Education for teachers, and many other settings. This book is a great step-by-step how-to that includes forms and very clear guidance. Does it substitute for working under a mentor who knows this area, no. Does it provide VERY clear guidance in keeping with IDEA - Yes.
Required text for class February 17, 2010

This book was required for me to buy for a course I am taking. I think it's overly ridiculously priced- 75 dollars for a really thin handbook. I haven't read it all yet to comment on the content. It was delivered quickly and seller is recommended.
