Steve Levitt presented findings from a behavior assessment of a student named Steve. Steve has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, seizure disorder, and developmental apraxia. He has a history of pinching and biting others. The assessment reviewed Steve's background, school situation, problem behaviors, reinforcers, sensory needs, and medical conditions to develop a hypothesis that Steve pinches others in his group when the teacher turns her back to communicate agitation or irritation.
