OUR SERVICES

What We Do and
How We Do It

To successfully decrease unwanted behaviors and teach substitute behaviors, we must know more about each behavior. This is when we look at the ABC’s. What are ABC’s? A is the Antecedent and describes what happens right before the behavior. B is the Behavior itself. C is the Consequence and describes what happens right after the behavior.

Knowing the Antecedents, Behaviors, and Consequences helps us to understand why a behavior may be happening and how events following the behavior may affect whether the behavior is likely to happen again.
