On Task Behavior

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.

The purpose of the present study was to examine the immediate and long term effects of self-recording for on-task responding. Data were taken for both on-task and accuracy of performance in handwriting, spelling, and math with three behaviorally disordered elementary school students. The effects of self-recording were evaluated in a multiple-baseline design across subject-matter areas. The overall results revealed an increase in both on-task and academic performance when the students self-recorded their own on-task behavior. Only one pupil decreased his academic performance over that noted in baseline. Follow-up data taken during the first, second, and third school years yielded rates of on-task behavior over that of baseline, but not at the levels found in the self-recording condition. The practical aspects of the self-recording procedure were discussed.

On Task Behavior

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a self-monitoring of academic accuracy and productivity procedure on the academic performance and on-task behavior of three male students classified as behaviorally disordered/emotionally disturbed. Students were taught to self-monitor in each of three successive academic areas: reading, mathematics, and spelling. A multiple baseline design was used to assess the effectiveness of the intervention. Students made gains in academic accuracy, productivity, and on-task behavior and improvements were observed across all subject areas. The results of this study indicate that the self-monitoring procedure can be used effectively in special education classes for students with behavioral disorders to enhance academic performance and to support on-task behavior.

On Task Behavior

An alternating treatments design was used to evaluate and compare the effects of two interdependent group contingencies on the academic performance, on-task behavior, and disruptive behavior of eighth-grade students in a social studies class. All students were enrolled in a self-contained alternative school for students with behavior problems. Delivering rewards contingent upon participants’ average percent correct enhanced on-task behavior and percent correct on independent seatwork assignments; however, delivering rewards contingent upon participants’ on-task behavior yielded more consistent and larger increases in percent correct and on-task behavior. Neither group contingency resulted in consistent or meaningful changes in disruptive behavior. Theoretical and applied implications related to direct and indirect effects of interdependent group rewards are discussed along with directions for future research.

On Task Behavior

An A-B-A-B time series design was used to determine the effects of an individual contingency system in decreasing inappropriate and disruptive behavior of behaviorally disordered students in a physical education setting. Nine students (ages 8-13 years) participated in a 4-week physical education program in which response cost procedures (loss of free time) were systematically administered to individuals who did not follow class rules. Results indicated that during treatment and replication of treatment, the on-task behavior of all students improved from 44.0% to 69.1% and 38.1% to 71.6%, respectively. Older students appeared more responsive to treatment than younger students. Individually, three of five younger students (mean age 9.4 years) and all four older students (mean age 12.2 years) responded favorably to treatment. The study demonstrates that an individual contingency can be an effective behavioral strategy in modifying disruptive behavior which normally prevents these students from participation in physical education. In addition, younger as well as older students benefit from the approach, but not all individuals within this group responded favorably.

Art Classrooms

Disruptive student behavior, a common concern for teachers, presents particular challenges for those who teach art. Class-Wide Function-Related Intervention Teams (CW-FIT) is a multitiered intervention for implementing effective classroom management strategies aligned with schoolwide positive behavior interventions and supports. CW-FIT has proven effective in general education classrooms, with its emphasis on social skills instruction, teacher praise, group contingency, and positive reinforcement. This first study of CW-FIT implementation in elementary art classrooms examined its effects on student on-task behavior. The researchers used a single-subject (AB) design in one classroom and reversal designs (ABAB) in two classrooms. Results indicated student on-task behavior significantly improved, and the teacher was able to implement CW-FIT with fidelity as well as increase her praise-to-reprimand ratios. Both teacher and students found the intervention to be socially valid. Study implications and limitations are discussed.

On Task Behavior

This study compared the effects of two types of self-monitoring on attention and academic performance. Twenty-eight students with learning disabilities were taught a spelling study procedure (SSP), followed by instruction in self-monitoring of performance (SMP) and self-monitoring of attention (SMA). Results showed that on-task behavior was significantly higher in both SMA and SMP than in SSP. Number of correct practices was significantly higher in SMP than in SSP. Spelling achievement was significantly lower in SMA than in SSP, and spelling maintenance was significantly lower in SMA than in SSP and SMP. Student interviews indicated that SMA is experienced as intrusive. The type of self-monitoring used may have direct, significant effects on academic outcomes; there does not appear to be a “best” method of self-monitoring for all students on all tasks.

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%).
