ABC chart for recording behaviours of distress

Download our ABC Chart (with examples of good and bad use) so you can start to understand behaviour patterns for individuals at your organisation.

The ABC Chart is a well-established tool for analysing behaviours by systematically recording what happens before (antecedent), during (behaviour), and after (consequence) a behavioural event.

ABC charts help to identify triggers and patterns in specific behaviours you want to observe, providing a clear picture of the factors influencing the individual’s actions. Through consistent use of the ABC Chart, carers can develop more targeted strategies to manage and support positive behaviour.
