Age-specific Language

[edit]

This article frequently refers to individuals as "children" in discussing the application of PBS, which is inappropriate given that PBS is also used in providing services to adults. ---MW--- (talk) 13:27, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

We have some great contributions, but we need some help with the citing...also, we probably should break up the huge amount of text into relevant sections.Josh.Pritchard.DBA (talk) 21:07, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

IS PBS ABA?

[edit]

Someone inserted the word "not", to reverse the meaning of the first sentence Positive Behaviour Support is a form of Applied Behaviour Analysis. It may be ok to introduce the controversy raised by Johnston,Foxx and others later in the piece, but this would need to be counterbalanced with the opinion of the majority of people who practice PBS (e.g. LaVigna and Willis, 2012).It is contentious that Positive Behaviour Support is not applied behaviour analysis. Citing controversialist opinion pieces as justification for the assertion that PBS is not ABA seems to lack balance.

This is so poorly written!

[edit]

PBS is not "used to understand what maintains an individual's challenging behavior." Its purpose is to modify the behavior and understanding the behavior is a component, not the purpose. Terms like "challenging behavior," "inappropriate behavior," and "undersirable behavior" need to be defined. The article also focuses too much on children. PBS is widely used with adults. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.18.133.71 (talk) 19:05, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Apparent contradiction

[edit]

One paragraph states

  • Schools are required to conduct functional behavioral assessment (FBA)

and, later

* Even though FBA is required under limited circumstances

These seem to contradict each other. Is it required, or just under limited circumstances? If someone familiar with FBA in the US can clarify, that'd be great WotherspoonSmith (talk) 12:22, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
