Self-Monitoring of Attention versus Self-Monitoring of Performance: Effects on Attention and Academic Performance.

Reid, Robert; Harris, Karen R.

Exceptional Children, v60 n1 p29-40 Sep 1993

Twenty-eight students (ages 9-12) 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). On-task behavior was significantly higher in both SMA and SMP than in SSP. Neither SMP nor SMA were inherently superior across subjects, settings, or tasks. (Author/JDD)
