Examples Of Behavioural Interventions
Behavioural Interventions/Techniques
Behavioural interventions and techniques aim to reduce problematic behaviours and impart practical alternative behaviours using the simple principles of behaviour change. These approaches are based on behavioural/operant principles of learning; they consist of examining the antecedents that prompt a particular behaviour and the consequences that follow it, and then making alterations in this series to increase desired behaviours or reduce inappropriate ones.
Behavioural interventions range from one-to-one instruction to realistic approaches that focus only on communication and also other facets of educational programming, or on replacing maladaptive manners being used for communication.
Examples of behavioural interventions include the following:
Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA)
A treatment tactic in which principles of learning theory are used to bring about positive change in behaviour. …show more content…
ABA techniques are often used in serious, early intercession (below age 4 years) programs to impart all sort of life skills. Intensive programs can be from 25 to 40 hours a week for 1 to 3 years.
Discrete Trial Training (DTT)
A one-to-one teaching approach employing interactive methods to impart skills in a systematic fashion. The teaching is done in a discrete trial with a clearly identified consequence (e.g., reinforcement like praising or rewarding) for wanted behaviours. DTT is mostly used for initiating skills that pupils are not starting by themselves, and can be taught in a face-to-face setting.
Functional Communication Training (FCT)
A behavioural intervention program that teaches alternative responses to maladaptive behaviour with ABA procedures. Extinction can be used to eradicate problem behaviours and replace with alternate more appropriate forms. FCT can be used with ASD children of different ages regardless of communication
