Running an FBA: A Practical Guide for School Teams
A step-by-step FBA process for school teams: triggers, roles, indirect and direct data, building a function hypothesis, and the handoff to a BIP.
Key takeaways
  • An FBA exists to identify the function of a behavior, not just to describe it.
  • Start with indirect data (records, interviews) before you spend observation minutes.
  • Plan direct observation around where and when the behavior is most likely.
  • A hypothesis is sound when several sources of evidence point the same way.
  • The FBA summary statement is what the BIP is built to address.
