Instruction in Functional Assessment Chapter 2 3. Speculate about the possible difficulties involved in evaluating challenging behavior. 4. How can competency in performing FAs be established with college students who are entering professions where they may work with individuals with challenging behavior? 5. What are important ethical considerations when assessing and treating the challenging behaviors of individuals with developmental disabilities? Exercise 1: Case Study Simulation Jimmy is a fifth grade student who has been in and out of five foster homes over the course of his life. Jimmy does not have many friends, due in part to his frequent transitions to new schools and homes. Jimmy is currently placed with a loving older couple who want to stabilize his daily life. Jimmy is very quiet and shy, often described as sullen by previous teachers. He participates in noxious behaviors, such as vomiting and spitting, when asked to complete a task that he doesn’t like or want to do. Using the approaches described in this chapter, evaluate Jimmy’s problem behavior by answering the following questions: 1. Propose a behavioral definition for Jimmy’s challenging behaviors. Ad lib as needed. 30
Instruction in Functional Assessment Chapter 2 2. How would you begin to investigate the reasons for this behavior? 3. What indirect methods of FA could be used to evaluate this problem behavior? 4. What questions would you ask of the adults who are most significant in Jimmy’s life? 5. What might be a plausible maintaining variable for Jimmy’s challenging behavior? 6. Plan how you would conduct a FAn to determine if your hypothesis for the function of Jimmy’s challenging behavior is correct. Draw a graph that depicts the results of a FAn that illustrates that function. 31
