ABC’s of Everyday Behavior: How to See Functional Relations in your Classroom

Educators and clinicians are responsible for creating an effective learning environment for a diverse group of students and an ever-changing evolution of the daily environmental circumstances. While human behavior often feels unpredictable, years of research have uncovered variables in the environment that can help us predict if a behavior will occur or not. This session will provide a beginner level introduction to the ABC’s of human behavior, Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence. Participants will develop skills to assess current variables in the environment, and brainstorm to learn new approaches for modifying those variables to increase the likelihood that a child will learn a new behavior, or stop engaging in a problematic behavior.

  • Participants will be able to describe behavioral units using the 3-term contingency paradigm as demonstrated by in session examples.
  • Participants will be able to watch video examples of behavior and describe environmental variables that may contribute to the occurrence of the behavior as demonstrated through contributions to brainstorming activities during session.
  • Participants will be able to describe ways to modify antecedents, behavioral outcomes, and consequences to improve student outcomes as demonstrated through contributions to brainstorming activities during session.
