[quote=Anonymous]If you are using a stimulant medication, such as concerta or Ritalin you should see a change that day. If it is a non stimulant, such as tenet, it will take a while to build up a therapeutic level. Like a month. A functional behavioral assessment is an assessment that looks at antecedents (what comes before the behavior of concern) and consequences (what comes after) to determine the function of the behavior to see if there are ways to prevent the behaviors or respond in such a way to decrease the behaviors. FBAs are usually done by psychologists or behavior analysts. Sometimes private schools are not receptive to doing this sort or data collection. You may have to hire a private psychologist or behavior analyst. [/quote]
