This course explores the principles and practices of functional assessment and intervention for individuals exhibiting challenging behaviors. Students will learn to conduct comprehensive functional behavior assessments (FBA), including indirect and direct assessment methods, to identify antecedents, behaviors, and consequences. Emphasis is placed on developing data-driven, individualized intervention strategies grounded in applied behavior analysis (ABA) to promote positive behavior change in diverse settings such as schools, clinics, and community environments. Through case studies and practical exercises, students will acquire skills in creating intervention plans, monitoring progress, and collaborating with interdisciplinary teams to support meaningful outcomes.
