There is over 40 years of research outlining strategies to help us understand the reasons why challenging behavior occurs. The assessment and treatment of challenging behavior can be understood via the functions of behavior and how a child operates their environment. There are a number of diverse variables to consider when working with Hispanic/Latino families in order to provide culturally appropriate and sustainable services.
