Did you ever have one of those weird funtional analyses? You know, the one where all the problem behavior happens in the control condition or responding remains strangely variable during the escape condition even though the client’s teacher swears he tantrums every single time she presents any work? This week we seek answers as to what to do when your FA results look like the world’s most volatile stock prices by exploring idiosyncratic variables and how to find them. Plus, could the IISCA be the most idiosyncratic FA process of all? And one of Rob’s favorite articles, discussed here becuase we didn’t know where else to put it.
