Objectives Define challenging behavior Explore challenging behavior as communication & identify its forms & functions Examine & practice a 6-step process of Positive Behavior and Intervention Support Review resources to learn more about developing individualized intensive interventions
Social-Emotional Foundations for Early Learning (SEFEL) Pyramid Model Tier 3:Individualized Positive Behavior Support- Children with persistent challenges Tier 2-Social Skills Curricula-Children at Risk Tier 1 – High Quality Early Education-All Children
Continuum of Problem Behavior Students with severe/chronic problem behavior 5-7% 10-12% Students at-risk for problem behaviors Students with mild or no problem behaviors 80-90%
Challenging Behavior • Behaviors that are not responsive to the use of developmentally appropriate guidance procedures • Any repeated pattern of behavior that interferes with learning or engagement in pro-social interactions with peers & adults • Prolonged tantrums, physical & verbal aggression, disruptive vocal & motor behavior, property destruction, self-injury, noncompliance, & withdrawal Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning
Another Definition of Challenging Behavior Any behavior that: • Interferes with children’s learning and development • Isolates the child from peers • Causes harm to the child, other children, or adults • Causes damage to the physical environment • Puts a child at risk for later behavior problems or school failures (Kaiser & Rasminsky, 1999; Klass, Guskin & Thomas, 1995; Neilsen, Olive, Donovan,& McEnvoy, 1998)

Intensive Individualized Intervention An evidence-based process of assessment and intervention for establishing desirable, competent behavior while reducing challenging behavior
Universal Classroom Practices If High-quality Classroom Practices are implemented: May not need individualized interventions If needed, may not be so intensive or effortful
Five “SUPER” Classroom Practices Use 5:1 ratio of positive to negative/neutral attention Use predictable and comprehensible schedules and routines Use routines within routines Teach behavioral expectations directly Teach peer-related social skills Adapted from PTR-YC

Conducting a Functional Assessment • Observe the child in target routines & settings • Collect data on child behavior, look for situations that predict challenging behavior & are linked with appropriate behavior • Interview persons most familiar with the child • Review records Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning
Observation A system or plan for looking at behavior - J. Billman & J. Sherman , 2003
ABC’s • Antecedent • Behavior • Consequence

Setting Event • An event that occurs at another time that increases the likelihood the child will have challenging behavior • Serves to “set the child up” to have challenging behavior Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning
Sample Setting Event Chart Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning
Context Cards • Describes the setting • Describes interpersonal context • Describes problem Behavior • Looks at the social reaction

Conducting Interviews Interview family & other significant adults, child care providers, special educators, specialized therapists, & service providers
Critical Questions to ask • What is the behavior? • How often does it occur? Intensity? Duration? • What are the setting events? • What are the predictors or triggers? • What happens after the behavior? • What is the use of the behavior trying to communicate? • What strategies has been used in the past? • What are the reinforcers?
