Document Summary

Self management- the person engages in a behaviour that alters an antecedent or consequence of the target behaviour or alternative behaviour. Murray engaged in a number of controlling behaviours- such as setting goals, self monitoring, eating a snack at work, arranging to run with others- that it made it more likely that he would run more often (the controlled behaviour). Increase the response effort for the competing behaviour. Suppose you write a contract in which you state that you can watch an hour of tv in the evening as a reinforcer for completing 3 hours of studying. If you do not complete the homework, you might still watch tv. A student who lives with his mother may ask him to not fix him any breakfast until she sees he has studied for an hour. Social support: social support- a significant other praises the client for the correct use of the competing response and prompts.
