Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mr. LeDoux is using a functional behavioral assessment to understand the reasons behind Reid's misbehavior. This approach involves looking at the antecedents (triggers) and consequences of the behavior to determine its function or purpose for the student. This information can then be used to develop more effective intervention strategies. Neither positive behavior supports, self-management, nor task analysis involve a thorough examination of the antecedents and consequences of the behavior.
