Diagnostics
Diagnoses: “constellations of covarying behaviors that can help to inform the “what” of behavior.” Can provide a quick description of the problem. Examines: common etiology, mechanism, or
function Organize our thinking on the problem Can (not always) link dx to tx through research-
based methods (Evidence Based Practice) Do NOT get stuck in thinking that the problem you
are seeing is completely tied to the dx. Child can have two separate problems Child can have different reactions to a problem Problem may be antecedent but some other
consequence is sustaining the behavior. (A-B-C)

Systems-Change Theory
“Two or more individuals whose interaction is intended to produce a desired outcome.”
Rules of System: When one part changes, it effects change in other
parts. Learn how the different parts of the system work
together. Identify who the “change agents” are in the system
Focus: Teaching skills needed Building the capacity for systems to adopt new skills
