Question

Which of the following is not a part of a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP)?

1) Setting clear expectations and rules
2) Providing positive reinforcement
3) Implementing consequences for inappropriate behavior
4) Conducting a functional behavior assessment

Answer 1

Conducting a functional behavior assessment is not part of a Behavior Intervention Plan, as it is carried out prior to the development of a BIP to understand the student's behavior patterns.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is regarding the components of a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP). A BIP is a plan that is designed to teach and reward positive behaviors. It is typically used for students who have shown disruptive or problem behaviors.

The one option that is not a part of a Behavior Intervention Plan is 4) Conducting a functional behavior assessment. This is because a functional behavior assessment is actually conducted before a BIP is developed, in order to identify the reasons behind a student's disruptive behavior and what factors maintain or contribute to it. The BIP itself then uses this information to create a tailored plan to modify the student's behavior through:

• 1) Setting clear expectations and rules
• 2) Providing positive reinforcement
• 3) Implementing consequences for inappropriate behavior
