Welcome to BehaviorPedia!

Information and evidence-based tools for anyone seeking behavior change, skill-building, or better systems—at your fingertips!

Whether you’re a parent, teacher, coach, support professional, or just someone working on your own habits—this site was created to help you understand how behavioral interventions work, when to use them, and how to make them safer, more effective, and more respectful.

This is a site about behavioral science for real life—not just for clinical programs or formal plans.

🔍 What This Site Offers

This website is a growing library of:

• Clear explanations of common behavioral interventions

• Their intended uses—and what can go wrong

• Strategies that support skill-building without coercion

• Real-world examples, adaptations, and alternatives

• Tools for building your own behavior plans at home, school, or work

All written in plain language—no certification required.

👥 Who It’s For

• Parents navigating school support or behavior at home

• Educators supporting diverse learners

• Adults working on personal goals or habits

• Coaches, therapists, or direct support staff

• Curious humans who want to understand behavior

You don’t need to be in a crisis.
You don’t need a diagnosis.
You don’t need to know what “ABC data” is.
If you have a goal and a nervous system, you’re in the right place.

🧠 Why Behavioral Science?

Behavioral strategies aren’t just for therapy or special education—they’re tools for:

• Building routines

• Improving motivation

• Reducing stress responses

• Teaching life skills

• Creating better systems (for yourself or others)

The problem? Most behavior strategies are shared in confusing, medicalized, or provider-only ways. This site flips that script—by making those tools available to everyone.

🗺️ How to Use This Site

• Head to the Intervention Library to explore specific strategies

• Visit the Consent Tools page to learn how to ask better questions and design better plans

• Use the Behavior Planning Tools (coming soon!) to build your own personalized support strategies

• Explore Masked Coercion to learn how some “positive” strategies still work against autonomy

• Or just search for the kind of challenge you’re facing: transitions, tantrums, motivation, etc.

✨ Behavior is not the problem.

The goal should never be control:
The goal is understanding and creating systems that help people thrive.
