Behaviorism
Behaviorism
Behaviorism is the study of human behavior, how it is influenced, and how it can be changed. In particular, behaviorism examines the interplay of antecedents - A (i.e., stimuli that precede behaviors), behaviors - B, and consequences - C (i.e., resultant outcomes of behaviors). By observing and analyzing these three components of students' undesirable/unhelpful behaviors, the Behavior Specialist can develop intervention recommendations to facilitate desirable/helpful behaviors in students so that they can access learning and succeed academically, behaviorally and socially.

Attachment Theory
Attachment Theory
Attachment theory is the study of how humans attach and bond to each other, how these attachments can be disrupted by various experiences, and how these disruptions can be healed and remedied. The most important tenet of attachment theory is that young children need to develop stable, bonded relationships with caregivers (e.g., parents, teachers, other important adults) in order for normal development to occur on all levels. These secure attachments, in turn, allow children to attain higher levels of functioning, including emotional, behavioral, social, cognitive and academic.
