Abstract
Functional Analysis is an assessment tool that should be implemented by a trained Board Certified Behavior Analyst to determine the function of abbarent behavior. Functional Analysis is used when less intrusive assessment methods are inconclusive, and function needs to be determined in order to guide the BCBA to a function-based treatment strategy. The history and overview of functional analyses will be reviewed in the presentation including when and why to do a Functional Analysis. In addition, participants will gain knowledge on the standard Functional Analysis implementation, as well as variations. Report writing, including writing a Functional Analysis proposal and results, will be included in the interactive presentation.
