ABC chart

A simple record of behaviour in three columns: the antecedent (what happened just before), the behaviour itself, and the consequence (what happened straight after). Kept over several days, it helps a psychologist or behaviour analyst see patterns. A shadow teacher or special educator may be asked to keep one.
