Abstract

This article notes the neglect of thorough behavioral assessments prior to conducting treatment interventions for problem behaviors and provides a sequenced, structured format for conducting a comprehensive behavioral analysis. The guide is designed to help ensure that the analysis is comprehensive, that it includes potentially important antecedent events, that critical factors become apparent, and that useful recommendations for treatment can be derived from it. In addition, the guide solicits other useful types of information, including (a) covert antecedents such as thoughts, (b) setting events that may relate to the behavior, and (c) conditions under which the behavior does not occur. The guide should be of use to both experienced supervisors and online personnel.
