These assumptions guide the identification of the supports for challenging behavior and the interventions that are developed to address challenging behavior. Which of the following are core assumptions? Selected Answer: d. All of the above are correct. Answers: a. Challenging behavior and appropriate behavior are supported by the current environment. Behavior serves a function. b. Challenging behavior can be changed using positive interventions that address the function of behavior. c. Functional assessment should be a team-based process. d.
