Self-management procedures have been promoted in the professional literature as effective in producing, maintaining, and generalizing behavior changes in behaviorally disordered students. Additional purported advantages are increased student involvement in the behavior change process with a concurrent decrease in teacher involvement. The present review was conducted to evaluate studies of self-management procedures (i.e., self-evaluation, self-instruction, self-monitoring, and self-reinforcement) used with behaviorally disordered students in school settings. While general support for these techniques was found, many procedural concerns must be addressed in future research before educators can use them with confidence and efficiency.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the interaction effects among three components of self-management training: self-monitoring, self-evaluation/self-reinforcement, and self-instruction upon the appropriate and inappropriate verbal behaviors of three behaviorally disordered students. An extension of the A-B-A-B design was used to assess interaction effects. A combination of all three components and the combination of self-instruction and self-monitoring were the most effective treatments across all three subjects. Self-monitoring and self-evaluation/self-reinforcement, when employed as individual treatments, were least effective, while self-instruction was the most effective treatment when employed in isolation. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

Many skill training programs are directed toward producing initial behavior change, and little systematic attention is paid to the generalization and maintenance of those skills. This study uses a multiple baseline design across individuals to evaluate the effects of a self-instructional manual designed to teach self-monitoring, self-evaluation, and self-reinforcement on the generalization and maintenance of interview skills. The findings indicate that these self-management procedures enabled rehabilitation counselors to generalize and maintain behavior learned in a workshop setting.

This study demonstrates that the use of cognitive behavior modification components, including self-instruction and self-monitoring, led to increased academic performances. Further, the second experiment demonstrates that the academic skill improvement also led to a reduction in inappropriate classroom behaviors. The subjects were two institutionalized adolescent males with identified severe behavioral disorders. The first subject displayed academic deficits in the area of mathematics. He also demonstrated several inappropriate classroom behaviors during the performance of math tasks which included clenched fists, closed eyes, crying, refusals to work, and guttural noises. The second subject's most severe academic and behavioral problems occurred during reading. His inappropriate classroom behaviors included excessive yawning, sleeping, off-task verbalizations, rocking in his seat, and staring into space. The treatment package in each experiment was comprised of self-instructional training which focused on the academic problems. Both subjects demonstrated improved academic performances. Informal observations of Subject 1 suggested that a reduction in inappropriate behaviors coincided with the improved academic performance. Behavioral data were collected on Subject 2 and the results demonstrated that the inappropriate behaviors were reduced as academic performance increased.

Providing patients opportunities for self-management and education about their disease, asthma applications designed for use on an Android operating system can have positive health outcomes across the range of demographics who use mHealth applications. This study provides a content analysis of freely available Google Android Platform Mobile Applications for Asthma. A list of applications was collected on 26 October 2014, using the search feature of the Google Play Android platform and using the words and phrases “Asthma,” “Lung Function” and “Peak Flow.” Each application was coded for its approach to asthma self-management, based on categories adapted by Huckvale et al., which are based on the Global Initiative for Asthma and the National Asthma Education and Prevention Program. The characteristics of the 15 asthma applications are described. Most of the asthma applications’ primary function focused on patient self-monitoring and self-assessment. Using the HON Code, we found low health information quality across all asthma applications. Android asthma applications can have positive outcomes in helping patients as they provide opportunities for self-management and education about their disease. Future research should continue to monitor and evaluate the development and use of mHealth Asthma Applications. Based on these findings, and their indication of a gap in existing research, subsequent studies can continue to evaluate the development and use of mHealth Asthma Applications with increasing methodological consistency to improve the quality of in-app health information.

The effectiveness of self-management procedures in reducing the disruptive and off-task behaviors of students in a special education resource classroom was assessed. Four junior high-aged students, three of whom were classified as behaviorally disordered and one as learning disabled, participated in the study. Results indicated that self-evaluation procedures implemented in the resource room reduced students' off-task and disruptive behaviors. Data collected concurrently in students' regular education classes showed little or no generalization of treatment gains from the resource room. Recommendations are offered for facilitating the generalization of the self-management skills.

AbstractDiabetes self-management is a complex phenomenon which refers to patients' attending checkups regularly and adhering to a physician-prescribed regimen including following a strict diet, exercise, self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG), and medication. This review will unpack the facilitators and barriers for each of the recommended lifestyle change for improving diabetes management (i.e. the behaviors of diet, exercise, SMBG, and medication). Referred to as the “diabetes capital” of the world, the review will focus on diabetes self-management research and interventions in India, highlighting the dearth for appropriate evidence-based programs in the country. Finally, the review will discuss the scope for future research and practice within this field in the Indian context.

Abstract Creative entrepreneurship has gained ground in recent years with the advent of creative industries. The capabilitiesto set targets and individually self-regulate have been indicated as predictors of entrepreneurship. This study aims to identify validity characteristics of a self-regulation scale and to test if score differences are related to whether or not one is an entrepreneur, personalcharacteristics, or the activity sector. A total of 596 professionals from creative industries in Brazil participated in this study. The self-control and self-management scale (SCMS) has been applied; it has been translated and adapted to Portuguese. Cross-validation analysis has been done. The results support the three-factor structure of the scale. Entrepreneurs tended to indicate higher means in the self-evaluation factor than non-entrepreneurs. Activity sector, gender and schooling demonstrated a significant difference in the self-monitoring factor.

Many artisans practice self-directed learning to gain crafts expertise in non-academic settings. They can apply this skill for crafts entrepreneurship. A preliminary exploratory study supported by three crafts entrepreneurs cases explored their transition from artisanship to entrepreneurship. It begins to address the lack of literature at the nexus of crafts entrepreneurship and self-directed learning. Findings suggest artisans develop their product–market fit and solve business-related issues in self-directed learning cycles, exercising self-management at each step, and self-monitoring the outcomes. With profound implications to promote crafts entrepreneurship in resource-strapped small legacy cities, we present guidance for future research to develop this field.
