What is competing behavior pathway?

The Competing Behavior Pathway is a framework to help you understand your child’s behavior so that you can determine how best to reduce challenging behavior. The Competing Behavior Pathway is an important part of a Functional Behavior Assessment.

What is the competing pathways process?

The competing behavior model involves seven steps. These first four parts are: (1) the problem behaviors, (2) predictor events (immediate antecedents) for prob- lem behaviors, (3) the maintaining consequence of problem behaviors, and (4) setting events relevant to occurrence of problem behaviors.

What are competing behaviors?

When one is trying to stop a bad habit, one can engage in a competing alternative behavior, which is an activity that inhibits the ability of the person with OCD to engage in the habit that s/he is trying to break. For example, if one is knitting, one is unable to simultaneously pull one’s hair.

What is maintaining consequence?

A maintaining consequence is an item, activity or event that follows a behavior and results in an INCREASE in that behavior.

What are functions of behavior?

There are four main functions of behaviour – social attention, access to tangible items or preferred activities, escape or avoidance of demands and activities, and sensory sensitivities (this could be seeking or avoiding sensory input).

What is desired behavior?

“Socially desirable” behavior is masking one’s real self, and presenting oneself in a favorable manner. So is the term “personality”, derived from ‘persona’ meaning ‘the mask’. But it’s always not really bad to present oneself in a favorable manner or give one’s best attempt during the selection process.

What is a consequence strategy?

Consequence strategies are about appropriately responding to behavior. This includes responding to the behaviors of concern when they occur, AND responding to the desired behaviors to make them more likely to happen again .

How can I improve my desired behavior?

At the basic level, you can consider the use of natural reinforcement, social reinforcement, token reinforcement, and tangible reinforcement. All of these entail delivering a specific consequence following a desired behavior that increases the likelihood that the behavior will continue or increase in the future.
