ABC data collection is an integral component when conducting an FBA to hypothesized the function of the target behavior. This descriptive analysis allows you to develop a plan to alter the maintaining variables to change behavior.

An ABC data form is an assessment tool used to gather information that should evolve into a behavior implementation plan. ABC refers to: Antecedent- the events, action, or circumstances that occur before a behavior. Behavior- The behavior. Consequences- The action or response that follows the behavior.

ABC data collection is a structured approach that helps collect information about behaviors and events by recording their antecedents, behaviors, and associated consequences. The three components are essential to understanding the relationship between certain behaviors and their environmental factors.

ABC data collection examples "A" Antecedent - Shane was placed in the living room to play alone while his mother cooked dinner. "B" Behavior - Shane starts to bang his head on the floor. "C" Consequence - His mother came into the living room and picks Shane up to stop him from hurting himself.

The ABC model is used to identify the: Antecedent: Any situation, action, or event that immediately precedes a behavior • Behavior: An observable or measurable act • Consequence: A response, action, or event that immediately follows a behavior Problem behavior The student refuses to do her work.

The ABC Model: The three-term possible events of antecedent, behavior, and consequence. An antecedent is something that comes before a behavior and may trigger that behavior. A behavior is anything an individual does. A consequence is something that follows the behavior.

ABC Behavior Analysis: Examples Antecedent - Driver hears seat belt warning sound. Behavior - Driver puts on seat belt. Consequence - Driver avoids a possible injury and ticket.
