Manipulating the events connected to severe problem behaviors to

determine what is causing the problem behaviors is well documented in

empirical studies as one of the most valid methods to determine the

function of severe behaviors. However, most clinicians rarely use this

method when conducting functional behavior assessments (FBA's). The

Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence direct observation model and interview

strategies are commonly used in schools & homes; however these methods

only show correlation among events. The analogue functional analysis

shows true cause & effect resulting in unequivocally valid information

often resulting more effective behavior intervention plans. The skilled

clinician can set up situations that evoke the problem behaviors and

reinforce these behaviors to determine what is controlling them. This

workshop discusses creative variations required to adapt this analysis

to real settings
