Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Was just wondering if there is some sort of checklist that i can refer to to try and narrow down why behaviours are happening? My daughter Jemma 3 1/2 eats vegies from her 2yr old sister feeding her but not from me,, I just thought maybe there is some sort of list to rule out what it is or isnt, something that may work for all behaviours? Eg: Is it the bowl or different spoon, the way its given to her? things like that? thanks Belinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Oooo! This one is right up my alley! Belinda, is your concern about food selection primarily or other behaviors too? I do a lot of work on picky eating and oral motor control. Can you email me a detailed description of what's going on and a list of foods your child eats to joan@...? I'd be happy to work with you from there.

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Hi Joan,I wanted to ask you if I could email you also. My son has the weirdest eating behaviors and won't eat for anyone but me. Thanks, Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 ---Yes still would like to find a general checklist that may help in all areas, that would be so helpful I'm finding it so hard to narrow things down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choose a " behavior " or situation. Make a grid. The grid marks off time across the top. Down the side list behaviors. Include spaces to write down other things he may be doing. Choose a time when you can just sit and watch. write a 15 minute time in the box across the top. hash mark down teh column each time your child does something inthe list. You will start to see patterns. I journal a LOT when I'm focussed on Andy's behaviors. When I go back through it, after I " m not emotional, I begin to see a pattern. Soemtimes that gives me the answer. Other times it gives me what I need to record for freuqency. does this make any sense? Off to make dinner.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Belinda, you are on the right track with your questions and glad Joan has offered to assist as this is her arena. Should you be reading from the listserve, under the links file under sensory integration or What is ABA? You will find lots of links to help anyone save some time while searching for resource information and hopefully there are some similar solutions to what you are working on. Let's see if this works. ABC’s of Behavior Antecedent = the observable stimulus/conditions leading up to a behavior. Behavior = the animal’s observable response / action to the antecedents. Consequence = the physical/observable result of the behavior. http://www.ccbd.net/documents/bb/abc23-27.pdf ABC Observation Form ANTECEDENT. BEHAVIOR. CONSEQUENCE ... http://www.dbpeds.org/pdf/abcform.pdf ABC Form http://www.casey.k12.ky.us/SpecialEducation/FBA/FBA%20ABC%20Form%2010-02.doc. Wishing you well on identifying and measuring challenging behavior, as well as developing and implementing interventions to address the identified behavior.

Thats exactly what im looking for, > you're a ledgend !!! > Your welcome, hope something helps and you will master this skill of navigating. I do understand what you mean, when I came aboard this listserve I was not too computer savvy and still learning. When one post some of the links I do try to place them over on the link file for future reference. May you have some luck to assist your child. If there is any other challenging issue you would like to tackle and once again reading directly from the listserve, there is this search box. Then type in example " behavior " , you will see lots of old post that could probably help with what anyone has had to share with their experiences. It does give one hope as once upon a time when my son was a youngster, there was nothing and here you have a selection to choose from when anyone shares their story and of course ask and you shall recieve.
