Document Summary

When a person uses behavior modification procedures to change his or her own behavior, the process is called self-management. According to skinner, self-management involves a controlling behavior and a controlled behavior the person engages in the controlling behavior to influence the future occurrence of the controlled behavior. The controlling behavior involves implementing self-management strategies in which the antecedents and consequences of the target behavior or alternative behaviors are modified; these strategies make the controlled behavior (target behavior) more likely. Goal-setting involves writing down the criterion level of the target behavior and the time frame for the occurrence of the behavior. Can use antecedent manipulations described in chapter 16: all self-management procedures involve antecedent manipulations because the person engages in some controlling behaviors in advance of the target behavior to be controlled.
