TIPS

Provide measurable, observable, objective definition of the problem behavior

•  Behavior can be seen, heard, or counted.

• Anyone can determine when behavior starts/stops?

• If multiple behaviors are considered, use separate forms for each behavior. 

 

BIP TIP!

The operational definition of the problem behavior created here is used in Step #8 of this form (FBA) and Step 1 of the BIP. 

IEP TIP!
For a student with an IEP, the ARC should:

• Define the Problem Behavior in the Present Level of Performance AND

• Check ‘Yes’ for the considerations of Special Factors for Behavior
