Abstract:
In 1997, Congress established the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA, 1997), which required that schools conduct functional behavior assessments when a student engages in problem behavior that may lead to suspension or expulsion (Ervin et al., 2001; Yell & Katsiyanis, 2010). As a result, research has expanded to include ways to adapt the functional assessment process in school settings. The purpose of this study was to compare the correspondence between functional analysis procedures for students in a private school and validate the assessment outcomes with interventions conduct

Abstract:
Functional assessment procedures have proven effective in identifying the operant contingencies that maintain problem behavior. Typically, the evaluation of responding during functional analyses is conducted at the condition level. However, some variables affecting occurrences of behavior cannot be evaluated solely through the use of a cross-session analysis. Evaluating within-session patterns of responding may provide information about variables such as extinction bursts, discriminative stimuli, and motivating operations such as deprivation and satiation.

The present study presents the research findings of the first ever multi-modular Paenibacillus mucilaginosus glycoside hydrolase (PmGH). Furthermore, we report the successful crystallisation of a multi-modular GH. The GH is composed of two catalytic modules (GH5 and GH6) and two carbohydrate binding modules (both CBM3). Functional analysis demonstrated that the cellulase, mannanase and xylanase activities of PmGH (130 kDa) were attributed to the GH5 catalytic domain. The presence of the GH6 catalytic domain resulted in slightly increased cellulase activity in PmGH. Optimal PmGH activity and fu
