An FBA is an analytical process based on observations, review of records, interviews, and data analysis to determine the
function the behavior serves for the student, how that function can be met more appropriately and how the environment can
be altered to better support general positive behaviors.

8. Environmental Factors:
What are the reported and observed predictors for the current behavior(s)? (Antecedent events that trigger
problem behavior)
Academic work time, specifically tasks that are difficult for Caleb to complete independently. He also struggles when
his peers are succeeding and he is not, or when he is doing well, but is unable to fully comprehend his success,
which leads him to feeling discomfort. Furthermore, the behavior is likely to occur when other students are receiving
attention from Mr. O'Neal or Miss Hop and Caleb is not.
What supports the student using the current problem behavior(s): summary based on the environmental
assessment portion of this assessment: (e.g., what is in the environment that should be eliminated or reduced?
What is not in the environment that should be added?)
Caleb is prone to being distracted by his peers, which means that when he feels frustrated and is witnessing the
success of others, he will take his feelings out on his friends that are sitting at his table. He also seems prone to his
outbursts when his teachers are assisting other students. For these reasons, it is recommended that Caleb be given
his own desk or station to work at and it would be preferable that his station be situated close to Mr. O'Neal. It is
hypothesized that this physical change in Caleb's classroom environment will result in decreased expressions of
aggression. Having a quiet place in the room or allowing him to visit Miss Hop's office if he needs a break or is being
unsafe is also hypothesized to have positive results.
9. Functional Factors:
Hypothesis of function (purpose) of this behavior for this student based on data collected in Section 3. above
The data suggests that Caleb maintains his aggression and outbursts because of his need to receive attention from
or be in contact with caring adults, including Mr. O'Neal, Miss Hop, and Mrs. Mendiola.
SECTION 4: Conclusion/Recommendation
1. Conclusions: (Recommendations for IEP, 504, or school team consideration)
The team agreed to proceed with a Behavioral Intervention Plan in order to reduce Caleb's frequent outbursts and
demonstrations of aggression, while also increasing his pro-social behaviors within and beyond the classroom setting.
2. Estimate of need for behavior intervention:
Extreme
Serious
Moderate
Needs attention, early stage intervention
Monitor behavior only; no formal behavior intervention plan is recommended at this time
3. If a Behavior Intervention Plan is NOT now recommended:
Behavior goals to be developed by: and contained in:
Consider Tier II interventions, or other interventions, such as
Consider assistance to students teacher to enhance environmental/student
Consider other Tier III interventions, such as district provided Cognitive Behavioral Therapy such as a Related Service
to address emotionally driven behavior
Consider WrapAround or Multiagency teaming

4. This team has determined that if a behavior plan is NOT to be developed as a result of this assessment, a
functional behavioaral assessment will be considered again if:
data demonstrates the problem behavior intensity, duration or frequency escalates or continues at current rate or
data demonstrates non-responsiveness to selected other approaches
