Customer Rating: 

The price for this book was a total ripoff! It's a thin, used book and the charge was $70.00!! I strongly discourage ordering from this source if this is an example of their product and pricing history.

I'm a Board Certified Behavior Analyst. I've taught FBAs to graduate students, undergraduates, in Continuing Education for teachers, and many other settings. This book is a great step-by-step how-to that includes forms and very clear guidance. Does it substitute for working under a mentor who knows this area, no. Does it provide VERY clear guidance in keeping with IDEA - Yes.

I only got this book for the class I was taking. I have no opinion on this book.

Customer Rating: 

This book is a fabulous resource for anyone working with children or adults who display inappropriate behaviors. Special Education teachers, administrators, Behavior Specialists, Counselors, Psychologists and people providing direct care will benefit from the hands-on tool. The book gives sample Behavioral Support Plans (Behavior Management Plans) derived from an excellent Functional Assessment Interview (FAI) tool. Readers will learn how to target the problem behavior and provide measurable objectives to address the behavior. A "must have" for anyone providing support to students or adults with behaviors and/or MR/DD.

I use this text in my college course on "Behavioral Assessment and Positive Behavior Support" for beginning special education teachers. It breaks down the process of completing a Functional Assessment and Functional Analysis in an easy-to-understand manner. The examples and the forms included are extremely helpful for all levels of behavioral intervention.
