The effects of peer tutoring and self-management on on-task behavior and academic performance (tutee) as well as disruptive behaviors (tutor) were examined. The tutor had been identified as behaviorally disordered and the tutee as learning disabled. During the peer tutoring condition the tutee improved his on-task and academic performance but the tutor's disruptive behavior did not change. Self-management was initiated for both subjects. During self-monitoring the tutee's on-task behavior improved above that during peer tutoring. The tutor self-monitored his disruptive behavior but only slight improvements were observed. A self-instructional component was then added and the disruptive behavior was eliminated. For both subjects, a multiple baseline across-settings design was applied and results were observed across resource and general education English and mathematics classes.

Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often exhibit problem behavior and struggle in the classroom both academically and behaviorally. To be successful in school, children are required to have the ability to engage in tasks during learning activities (on-task behavior). One of the intervention known as an effective strategy to increase on-task behavior of school-age children diagnosed with ADHD is a behaviorally-based self-management technique. This study was designed for a fifth grade student aged 11 years old with ADHD predominantly inattentive type. The study took place in an inclusive school at Bojong Gede. Using a single case AB design, four self-management strategy were implemented to increase the on-task behavior. Each baseline and follow-up data was collected over four days, while the intervention it self was implemented over 16 days. The result indicated that the self-management technique appeared to be effective in increasing on-task behavior of participant (from 38% to 90,5%).

Polydipsia is a disorder that has received little attention in the research literature. Treatment has been mainly confined to medical or pharmacological intervention. Few studies have reported the use of contingency management techniques and none have sought to encourage self-management. This study shows how such a procedure brought about a significant change in rates of water drinking in a thirty-one year old man with a mild learning disability.
