The learner will:
learn the basic components of behavior
be introduced to principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
explore how to use ABA principles in the classroom
3
All behavior is learned. Behavior is an action that is observable and
measurable. Behavior is not what a student is feeling, but
how the student expresses that feeling. Behavior serves two purposes:
• To get something• To avoid something
4
Behavior is a chain reaction.
5
Antecedent Behavior Consequence
What sets off the behavior
The behavior itself
Reaction to the behavior
Consequences for behavior can be pleasant or unpleasant from the student’s point of view.
Consequences that increase future behavior are called reinforcement.
Consequences that decrease future behavior are called punishment.
6
7
Reinforcement is a consequence that increases future occurrences of the behavior.
The student is likely to perform the behavior in the future because he likes and wants the reinforcer.
REINFORCEMENT = Increase in future rate of behavior
8
Punishment is a consequence that decreases future occurrences of the behavior.
The student will not perform the behavior in the future because he dislikes and wants to avoid the punisher.
PUNISHMENT = A consequence followed by behavior that decreases the future occurrence of behavior.
9
ABA is a universal set of behavior principles that explains behavior and how it can be changed.
Strategies from ABA apply to individuals of all ages and abilities.
Teachers can use ABA methods to teach their students to use appropriate behaviors or decrease inappropriate behaviors in the classroom.
10
Behavior reflects underlying needs and has a purpose.
Behavior will be repeated when it is reinforced.
Behavior will be decreased when it is not reinforced or when it is punished.
Behavior is learned. Behavior can change.

Behavior is learned.

Behavior can change.
16
Reinforce the behavior you want to see.
Some students require more frequent reinforcement.
Explicit expectations yield specific behaviors.
Teach a variety of behaviors in different contexts.

Teach a variety of behaviors in different contexts.
21
Whether a behavior is appropriate or inappropriate depends on the context in which it occurs.
