I like the theory but it's not often put into practice. Further it seems a bit presumptuous to suggest that behaviour that is challenging to others is necessarily aggression or self harm or harm to others...it may be repetitive speech out of anxiety and other manifestations of communication attempts. I also find that this approach puts the onus on the person and prescribes the 'challenging behaviour' and the associated 'positive behaviour support' as characteristics of the person and the PBS is a means to control or redirect that behaviour (even if there is an understanding of why the person reacts this way). To me it starts with the relationships...and from there the quality of support the person has around them. It is not that any supporter is doing something wrong, but often what it is that they are not doing, or what they are missing! Even the name of this strategy Positive Behaviour Support is a clear indicator that the developers of this still assign it as Positive Behaviour of the Person as if they exhibit BAD BEHAVIOUR, rather than that the support provided is MISSING THE POINT and that it is the SUPPORT that needs to improve!
This is a great new introduction to ABA. Well done on the repackaging. “Many believe PBS is the most ethical form of support...” Interesting sell there. So it’s not quite ethical, but many say it’s the most ethical. But we won’t explain why.
This video is very interesting but I hope if you write as subtitles to take a note especially for those whose English is not improved and need those informations in his/her studies
Sorry for the delay in responding, there is sound on this video, I'm watching it now and can hear the sound clearly. Have you checked the sound on your computer, is it on mute or not working properly? Can you hear other videos but not this one? Do let us know at enquiries@bild.org.uk thank you.
I found the use of the term "challenging behaviour" very distracting from the message of the video. Who is the behaviour challenging for? Could there be another way of describing what you mean because it sounds very negative. Perhaps less use of the acronym PBS too, it doesn't take long to say the 3 words. Language is so important and we all need to be mindful of how we use it as it can hold power.
This video is disgusting. As an autistic adult and registered psychologist i got 11 seconds in before the offensive language you use could no longer be tolerated The term challenging behavior is offensive because it puts blame on the (autistic) individual for daring to be "challenging". This kind of language is not ND affirmative. It pulls focus from the environmental, sensory and social triggers of the behaviour which is vital to be ND affirmative and puts focus on the negative effects of autistic communication on the recipient (usually NT staff). PLEASE for the attention of any service provider out there this video is not endorsed by autistic adults and the language is not ND affirming
To be fair the video was made 7 years ago. The industry, as you are aware, is still learning all the time. Seven years ago, the term 'challenging behaviour' was looked upon as a more positive and constructive way of saying behaviours that were considered unacceptable (in hindsight, a terminology just as offensive). The term wasn't limited to disability but all areas of care (dementia, psychiatric etc) as well as children with issues such ADHD. The education and further shedding of ignorance in the disability field has continued and we now understand 'behaviours of concern' is far closer to the mark than the previous terminology. You make some great points and it's why input like that will continue to expand the understanding (by society) and needs required of meeting the human rights of people in all areas of disability. But the general content of the video is good as it's simple and easy to learn (and extremely important). Contacting the producers and asking them to change the offending terminology may have been the way to go.

I use this video to train support staff, it's a very clear description of the approach and model,
Thanks BILD

Sounds like you need a positive behaviour support plan for your challenging behaviour! Now stop Moaning. 🙄
This is NOT PBS *woof*
