[FinB] A multidisciplinary team that includes the behavior analyst, preschool teacher, school principal, occupational therapist, and the student’s father supports a preschool student. During a progress meeting, the team reviews data that show that the student has been engaging in increasing instances of bolting behavior, specifically during circle time.

[FinA] When Dane engages in vocal stereotypy during class activities, repeating “Chicken, bock, bock, bock” the teacher asks Dane questions he knows the answers to, such as, “How old are you?” “Where do you go to school?” and “What’s your sister’s name?” for 30-60 seconds.
