Read each question carefully and answer to the best of your ability. This worksheet will help you understand how behaviors are linked in a 'chain'.
What is a Behavior Chain?
A behavior chain is a sequence of events that leads to a specific behavior. It usually involves three main parts: an **antecedent** (what happens before the behavior), the **behavior** itself (what someone does), and a **consequence** (what happens after the behavior). Understanding these chains can help us understand why we do certain things.
Our brains are constantly making connections, like a chain reaction, which influences our actions.
1. The event that happens BEFORE a behavior is called an .
2. The action someone takes is known as the .
3. What happens AFTER a behavior is called the .
4. Which of the following is an example of an antecedent?

Feeling hungry
Feeling full
Sleeping
5. A consequence is something that happens:
Before a behavior
During a behavior
After a behavior
Instead of a behavior
6. Describe a simple behavior chain you experience in your daily life. Identify the antecedent, the behavior, and the consequence.
Match the term on the left with its definition on the right.
