Description: Assessment of student behavior states and contextual variables has emerged as a promising area for research and practice in the education of individuals with profound and multiple disabilities. This paper presents findings of an observational study of ten-school aged students in this population, with particular attention being paid to social and communicative variables operating in educational settings. Comparisons are made with other published studies of behavior state assessment and socio-communicative processes observed in special education programs. Implications of these findings are discussed in relation to extant literature and avenues for further investigation in this field.
