Correlational Analysis of Challenging Behaviours.
Whitaker, Simon; Hirst, Daniel
British Journal of Learning Disabilities, v30 n1 p28-31 Mar 2002
It is argued that challenging behavior can be better understood if a correlational analysis (looking for correlations between behavior occurrence and other variables) is used in addition to functional analysis. A case example is provided of a man whose aggressive outbursts were negatively correlated with trips out of his unit. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
