Functional Behavioral Assessment is a process to identify problem behaviors and developing interventions to improve or eliminate those behaviors. Schools often use an FBA  to evaluate risk for students with serious behavior issues.  An FBA consists of information-gathering procedures that result in a hypothesis about the function that the behavior is serving for the student.
