The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine teachers' perspectives on the prevalence and interventions of challenging behaviors among students with intellectual disabilities. Seven special education teachers were specifically chosen to take part in individual interviews and focus groups in Taif city. Using Merriam's ( 2009) approach to constant comparative of the cases, the date from interviews and focus groups were transcribed and analyzed in conjunction with demographic background, teaching materials, and students' behavior plans. Three measure themes emerged that explained the challenging behaviors' prevalence and intervention, which included: (a) the most prevalent disruptive behaviors' (b) pre-behavior occurrence procedure; and (c) the most effective intervention technique. The study recommends deeply investigation in which intervention better suit a specific challenging behaviors and consider new intervention approaches. Finally, the author suggests further examination of the effect of challenging behaviors on teachers' selfefficacy, job satisfaction, and emotional exhaustion.
