Functional Behavior Analysis

FBA is the process of gathering and analyzing information about a student's behavior and accompanying circumstances in order to determine the purpose or intent of the actions. This investigation is designed to help educators:

-Determine the appropriateness of the student’s present educational placement and services and whether changes would help the student to increase more acceptable behaviors.

-Identify positive interventions that would reduce the undesirable behavior.

-Identify appropriate behaviors to substitute in the place of the inappropriate ones.
