What is the Motivation?
When teaching new replacement behaviors (to take the place of challenging behaviors) or other positive skills, it is critical to know what best motivates someone to learn.
Whether something is reinforcing depends on the individual…

- Activities or items may or may not appeal to an individual’s preferences and interests.
