People with developmental disabilities sometimes behave in ways that others, or they themselves, regard as problematic. This original book is about what practitioners can do to make sense of behaviours, in order to support clients more effectively. The author offers practical strategies for gathering and analysing information about behaviours, in partnership with the individual concerned, in order to gain a useful understanding of why a particular behaviour occurs. The inclusion of case histories, with corresponding behaviour plans, clearly demonstrates the real-life application of assessment methods.
