Question 2

You have just conducted a functional assessment for Larry's problem behaviors of hitting, screaming and kicking. You hypothesize that when Larry's dad is busy and Larry throws a tantrum, his dad reinforces his problem behaviors by sitting down and talking with him. What would you do to determine your hypothesis is correct?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

c

Answer to Question 2

I would run two conditions of a functional analysis. One condition in which when Larry's dad is busy, and Larry throws a tantrum, his dad reinforces his problem behavior by sitting down and talking with him. The other condition would be one in which Larry's dad provides frequent attention, and if Larry throws a tantrum, his dad continues to work and does not reinforce his problem behavior by sitting down and talking with him.
