FEAS Functional Dev.
Parents often demand and find comfort in a label.
They insist on knowing what's wrong and what the prognosis is. By using the Four Step Rule Out Model, we can clearly identify those behaviors, which are modifiable and potential ways to modify them. This will avoid pre-mature labeling incorrectly. Once all factors have been ruled out and only the relevant factors have been ruled in, then and only then can an accurate diagnosis and intervention program be offered. What is needed in providing appropriate intervention services for children with developmental disabities is to have them enrolled in programming, which is inclusionary in nature.
