Mackn Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Can the behavior have any implications when the student has visual and hearing impairments? Do these affect the data in any Functional behavior assessment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darcy Posted October 24, 2022 Author Share Posted October 24, 2022 Hi Mackn, I would say that the motivation for the behavior does not change based on disability; just how the motivation is expressed. So if the child is struggling because s/he cannot see or visually understand and having behavior, it will still have the same motivation as someone without those disabilities but in the same situation. Put another way, why the person is having the behavior is not based on their disability but our support for that person will change depending on his or her specific needs. Does that answer your question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
