The Goals of an FBA is to help understand the reasons why the child is exhibiting a problem or multiple problem behaviors, what the problem behaviors are, what is needed to rectify/change/replace the problem behavior, the goal the behavior is supposed to meet and why/when the behaviors become most pervasive.
Participants involved in FBA training will receive all pertinent forms and record-keeping paperwork meant to be used to prepare the FBA with fidelity and thoroughness.
