The subjects were four male learning disabled elementary school students. This study took place in a resource room containing twelve male students with learning disabilities in an urban elementary school. Self-monitoring procedures for on-task behavior included listening to a tone recorded at 60-second intervals and responding to the question, "Am I on-task?” Responses were recorded by the students. The procedures for self-monitoring of written language performance involved the students writing for a 1 O-minute session, counting and graphing the number of words they had written. The changing criterion with public posting condition involved the experimenter setting a goal for each student for the number of words written in the 10- minute session, then posting whether students met their goals. During baseline conditions, the experimenter collected data on student on-task behavior and written language performance. During the self-monitoring conditions, the students monitored their on-task behavior and written language performance simultaneously.</p> <p>While the results show a functional relationship between self-monitoring and on-task behavior, the data for the relationship between self-monitoring and written language performance were less compelling. The increase in written language performance during the self-monitoring alone conditions was only slight however, it was greater upon introduction of the changing criterion with public posting condition.</p> <p>The results suggest that self-monitoring is a powerful procedure for changing on-task behavior; however, further research needs to be conducted to determine the conditions that would produce the same effects for written language performance. Several implications for students, teachers, and parent training were discussed.</p> 1997 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1164047292 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1164047292 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
