C. Teach an additional communicative response specific to transitions.
The functional assessment indicates multiple social functions: attention AND escape. The current FCT targets escape (requesting a break). Transitions often involve loss of attention, change in activity and delayed reinforcement, which may not be addressed by the existing communicative response. Teaching a functional equivalent response specific to transitions (i.e.: “help”, “wait”, “more time” or “attention please”) directly addresses the maintaining variables present during transitions.
