FUNCTIONAL BEHAVIOR ASSESSMENT (FBA) INSTRUCTIONS
FUNCTIONAL BEHAVIOR ASSESSMENT (FBA) INSTRUCTIONS
Referral
The decision whether or not to perform an FBA should be made by the IEP team. If an FBA is NOT to be done, explanation/reasons should be detailed on a separate sheet.
Teacher Interview
Behaviors need to be very specific. Make sure what you list as a behavior is something that you can see and count. Don’t forget to list student strengths as well as weaknesses. Question 9 (the ‘student’s favorite things to do’) deals with desired reinforcers, not misbehavior.
Parent Interview
This can be done by phone or in person.
Student-Assisted Interview
If the student’s reading and writing level does not allow him/her to read the questions, an adult having good rapport with the child should read them and write the answers. Record student comments, affect, and disposition at ‘interviewer comments’.
Functional Behavior Assessment form
These pages are to be completed by the assessment team after student observations have been made, interviews conducted, and all information gathered and interpreted. Be sure to list strengths as well as weaknesses. List all team members. Attach all student observations to the FBA form. (Various observation forms are included at the end of the packet. Systems should choose the most appropriate form for each observation.)
Hypothesis
This page should be completed after the FBA form is finished. Specific strategies to teach ‘positive behaviors’ A-D are not included on this page.
