Well, if the data doesn't support the original hypothesis, I guess we could just close our eyes, cross our fingers, and hope the next assessment magically aligns with what we want to see. Or we could, you know, use that brain thing and go with D.

Personally, I'm leaning towards B. Why not just cover all our bases and design an intervention to address every possible function? After all, the behavior is the real problem, not the hypothesis.

But wouldn't it be more efficient to alter the hypothesis based on the results of the functional assessment?

I agree, covering all possible functions with a package intervention seems like a comprehensive approach.

That's true, it could save time and resources to adjust the hypothesis rather than designing a broad intervention.

Option C is a bit concerning, as continuing to conduct the assessment until the data matches the original hypothesis seems like a recipe for confirmation bias. Better to be open-minded and go with D.

I'm torn between B and D. While a comprehensive intervention package might work, it seems more prudent to adjust the hypothesis to align with the actual functional assessment findings.

Option D is clearly the correct answer. If the functional assessment data doesn't support the original hypothesis, it's time to revise the hypothesis based on the new information gathered.

But what if the data still doesn't support the new hypothesis? Should we keep adjusting it?
