Behavior Change
Also known as: Behavior Modification, Behavioral Intervention
Behavior change refers to the systematic process of modifying specific behaviors through structured intervention techniques. In accessibility and disability contexts, behavior change strategies are used to help individuals develop adaptive behaviors, reduce challenging behaviors, and build skills for independent living. Common approaches include applied behavior analysis (ABA), self-management training, positive behavioral support, and technology-mediated interventions using mobile apps or wearable devices. Effective behavior change programs for individuals with disabilities typically involve identifying target behaviors, setting measurable goals, monitoring progress, providing feedback, and reinforcing desired outcomes.
