Plan Development Team: Students Strengths and Abilities: Jacob is very outgoing and energetic. He enjoys doing things with his hands and is very good at putting puzzles together. Check Methods of Data Collection Analysis: Scatter Plot ABC Observation Review of Records Frequency/Duration/Time Sampling Self-Monitoring: Questionnaires/Rating Scales: Frequency/Duration of Positive Behavior. Name positive behavior: Interview: Special Education teacher Other:
Data: Frequency The frequency of the behavior varies throughout the day but occurs at a minimum of 15 times a day.
Duration Duration varies depending upon the required task or level of boredom, but will be sustained at a minimum of 3 minutes
3. Attention 7. Justice/Revenge
4. Acceptance/Affiliation
Identify Reinforcers: Jacobs hand or object flapping behaviors reinforces his need for oral feedback, and his oral feedback behaviors reinforce his need for hand or object flapping. Being successful in avoidance of non-preferred activities using these behaviors, continues to reinforce his use of them.

5. Desired Alternative Behavior Jacob will sit quietly and complete the assigned task
6. Typical Consequences Positive feedback from the teacher in the form of praise statements
4. Setting Event
Jacob needs frequent oral feedback and selfregulation. Need may be exacerbated by tiredness, illness, or prior extended absence from school.
1. Problem Behavior Jacob begins hand or object flapping and making loud vocalizations 7. Alternative/Replacement Behavior Jacob is given other object to satisfy oral feedback needs and/or fidget toy to satisfy need for hand motions
3. Maintaining Consequences Jacob is able to remain in the classroom and complete his tasks quietly
Academic tasks tend to make Jacobs behavior worse and it will escalate when he is redirected back to task. Behaviors also escalate whenever he is tired, has been ill, or has been out of school for an extended period of time such as during holiday and summer breaks. 5. What would you like the student to do (desired alternative behavior) instead of engaging in the problem behavior? Remember the Dead Person Rule. Dont list behavior that any dead person could do e.g., stay still, be quiet, etc. because they are not socially relevant behaviors. Examples: turn in all work; follow directions. Instead of engaging in the undesired behavior, Jacob will sit quietly with no hand or object flapping and complete the required task. 6. If the student engages in the desired alternative behavior, what usually happens (typical consequences)? Examples: earns passing grade; remains in class; assigned more work If Jacob engages in the desired alternative behavior, he is able to remain in class and complete his required tasks. No praise or reinforcement is given for the desired behavior. 7. What other behaviors (acceptable alternative or replacement behavior) could the student perform that could produce the same outcomes or maintaining consequences as the problem behavior? Examples: raise hand before talking; try before asking for help. Jacob will chew on appropriate objects that have been provided by the OT or play with a fidget toy without waving it in front of his face. 8. Select Intervention Strategies. Identify strategies for each of the four components (setting events, predictors, teaching, and reward/consequences) of the competing pathways summary. Setting events: Give Jacob a sensory break prior to requesting that he complete a task. Predictors: Watch for tasks that are known to cause avoidance behavior. Use a first then chart to motivate Jacob to work for a reward of free time or choice activity when he completes his task without engaging in stimming behaviors. Teaching: Offer Jacob an appropriate means of oral feedback. Reward/consequences: Jacob will receive praise and task of choice when he is able to complete his task without his stimming behaviors.
