Understanding Behavior in Children and Youth
Overview
The purpose of this chapter is to provide the student with an overview of how human behavior and learning is
conceptualized across multiple theoretical perspectives. These differing theoretical viewpoints include the:
Biomedical Model, Developmental Model, Psychodynamic/Psychosocial Model, Ecological Model, Behavioral
S
Model, Social Learning Model, Applied Behavior Analysis, and Positive Behavior Supports. This chapter is
R
intended to provide a comparative analysis of these varying perspectives and also to provide a historical overview of
how positive behavior supports has emerged as a pro-active method for addressing and preventing challenging
VE
behavior.
Objectives:
The objectives for this chapter will be to
IE
H
1. List and describe the common theories used to understand the human behavior, including the biomedical,
AC
developmental, psychodynamic/psychosocial, ecological, behavioral, and social learning models.
2. Describe the foundations and applications of applied-behavior analysis.
M
3. Describe the components of positive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS) and the application of
PBIS across the three tiers of prevention (primary, secondary, and tertiary).
