unit 9 assignment screening and assessment

/in /by

  • at a minimum, your FBA Report must include discussion of the required components as reviewed at the beginning of Chapter 12.
  • For each of those components, you should include specific details as they relate to the referral scenario you are addressing. Details would include descriptions of the assessment tools, forms, and procedures that would have been implemented.
  • It is not necessary to report actual scores or responses of completed assessment forms and tools, but you should include some detailed information that could have been gained by utilizing such tools and procedures within the context of the case scenario you are working on. DO NOT simply list items.
  • It is not necessary, nor appropriate, to include ALL of the assessment tools, forms, and procedures reviewed in the course. Be judicious in your choices and make good clinical decisions on what assessment procedures you are including.
  • Develop hypotheses related to the function of the target behavior based on fictional specifics of the tools and procedures you have described in your report.
  • All tools, forms, and procedures reviewed in Units 1–9 should be considered when developing the components to be included in your FBA Report, but, as stated above, it is not necessary to include all of them.
  • It is expected that you will need to demonstrate “creativity” and/or “dramatic license” when outlining the steps of the Functional Behavioral Assessment.
