The ABCs of Behavior

This 1-page exam prep sheet explains the three-term contingency, covering what an antecedent, a behavior and a consequence each are, with three worked examples set at home, at school and in a clinic session.

What You'll Learn

• Define antecedent, behavior and consequence in observable, measurable terms
• Break a real moment into its three parts across home, school and clinic settings
• Record what you saw rather than what you interpreted, so the BCBA can identify the function
