The Severe Behavior Lab houses a series of research projects that design and evaluate assessments and interventions for individuals with mild to severe challenging behavior. These services are best for individuals that engage in challenging behavior that impacts their ability to access educational, social, or community resources.

This lab is lead by Dr. Hannah MacNaul and her team of graduate research assistants at UTSA.
