PBIS PBIS Tier 3 Intensive Individualized Supports

Question 1

What is the foundation of all Tier 3 individualized behavior support planning in PBIS?

Accepted Answer

Conducting a Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)

Answer

A Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) is the required foundation of Tier 3 planning because it identifies the function—or purpose—of a student's behavior to guide individualized intervention.

Question 2

The primary goal of a Functional Behavior Assessment is to identify:

Accepted Answer

The function or purpose that the problem behavior serves for the student

Answer

An FBA seeks to determine the function (e.g., escape, attention, sensory, access to tangibles) that problem behavior serves so interventions can directly address that function.

Question 3

Which of the following is a common function of problem behavior identified through an FBA?

Accepted Answer

Escaping or avoiding a non-preferred task or activity

Answer

Escape/avoidance is one of the most common functions of problem behavior, meaning the student engages in the behavior to get out of or avoid a situation they find aversive.

Question 4

A Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) developed at Tier 3 should primarily be based on:

Accepted Answer

The results of the Functional Behavior Assessment

Answer

A BIP at Tier 3 must be directly informed by FBA results so that interventions target the identified function of the behavior rather than the behavior's topography alone.

Question 5

In a Tier 3 behavior plan, 'antecedent modifications' refer to:

Accepted Answer

Changes made to the environment or tasks before behavior occurs to reduce triggers

Answer

Antecedent modifications are proactive changes to the environment, task demands, or routines that reduce the likelihood of problem behavior being triggered in the first place.
