Functional behavioral assessment definition
Functional behavioral assessment means an individualized assessment of the student that results in a team hypothesis about the function of a student’s behavior and, as appropriate, recommendations for a behavior intervention plan.
Functional behavioral assessment means an evidence- and research-based systematic process for identifying the events that trigger and maintain problem behavior in an educational setting. A functional behavioral assessment shall describe specific problematic behaviors, report the frequency of the behaviors, assess environmental and other setting conditions where problematic behaviors occur, and identify the factors that are maintaining the behaviors over time.
Functional behavioral assessment means an assessment of a student’s behavior.
More Definitions of Functional behavioral assessment
Functional behavioral assessment means an assessment not otherwise available under the medicaid state plan to determine why an individual engages in intensive behaviors and how the individual's behaviors relate to the environment. A functional behavioral assessment describes the relationship between a skill or performance problem and the variables that contribute to its occurrence. A functional behavioral assessment may provide information to develop a hypothesis as to why an individual engages in a behavior, when the individual is most likely to demonstrate the behavior, and situations in which the behavior is least likely to occur.
Functional behavioral assessment means a process to determine the underlying cause or functions of a child’s behavior that impede the learning of the child with a disability or the learning of the child’s peers. It includes a review of existing data or new testing data or evaluation as determined by the IEP team.
Functional behavioral assessment means the process or evaluation used by staff to understand the cause or purpose of a student's specific behavior or behaviors of concern in a specific environment.

Functional behavioral assessment. (FBA) means the process of determining why a student engages in behaviors that impede learning and how the student’s behavior relates to the environment. The Functional Behavioral Assessment shall include, but is not limited to, the identification of the problem behavior, the definition of the behavior in concrete terms, the identification of the contextual factor that contribute to the behavior (including cognitive and affective factors) and the formulation of an hypothesis regarding the general conditions, under which a behavior usually occurs and probably consequences that serve to maintain it.
Functional behavioral assessment or "FBA" means a process for gathering information to maximize the efficiency of behavioral supports. An FBA includes a description of problem behaviors and the identification of events, times, and situations that predict the occurrence and nonoccurrence of the behavior. An FBA also identifies the antecedents, consequences, and reinforcers that maintain the behavior, the possible functions of the behavior, and possible positive alternative behaviors. An FBA includes a variety of data collection methods and sources that facilitate the development of hypotheses and summary statements regarding behavioral patterns. [Minn. R. 3525.0210, subp. 22]
