Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of multi-component intervention based on functional behavioral assessment on the attack behavior and alternative behaviors of Autism Spectrum disorder student. The research subjects are students who attend high school in a special school and who show attack behavior to their peers in the class. This study used multiple baseline design across settings, and it is based on the systematic functional behavioral assessment of the targeted students to understand the functions of problem behaviors and conducted multi-component interventions including antecedent and setting events, alternative behavior instruction, consequences. As a result of the study, multi-component intervention based on functional behavioral assessment decreased the incidence of attack behavior and increased the incidence of alternative behaviors. In the maintenance period after intervention, the frequency of attack behavior decreased and the frequency of alternative behavior increased. Based on the results of the study, we discussed the factors affecting the problem behaviors and alternative behaviors of students with autism spectrum disorder related to characteristics of the student, mediation, and previous studies.
