Behavioural Assessment

A behavioural assessment is a comprehensive process used to understand, observe and measure an individual’s behaviours, emotions and interactions within various contexts. At KB Psychology, Training and Consulting, we offer a thorough behavioural assessment that can assist with the development of tailored interventions and strategies that foster personal growth.

Interviews & Observations

Our process begins with a detailed intake interview, during which our clients provide background information about their current challenges and goals. This initial step helps to set the stage for more targeted observations and evaluations. During this phase, we use a variety of standardised questionnaires and rating scales to gather baseline data on the individual’s behaviour.

Observational techniques are a cornerstone of our approach. We use both direct and indirect observation methods, allowing us to gather real-time data on how individuals interact with their environment. Direct observation involves monitoring behaviour in natural settings such as the home, while indirect observation might include reviewing video recordings or third-party reports.

Functional Behaviour Assessments

Functional behaviour assessments (FBAs) can help to identify the underlying functions or purposes of specific behaviours. By understanding the antecedents (triggers) and consequences (outcomes) of behaviour, it’s possible to develop more effective intervention plans. These plans often include positive reinforcement strategies, skill-building activities and environmental modifications tailored to an individual’s unique needs. A functional behavioural assessment can also examine how factors such as family dynamics, workplace culture and social networks influence behaviour.
