Self-Management: Using Behavioral and Cognitive Principles to Manage Your Life
John Wiley and Sons Ltd, Dec 2010, Pages: 272
Self Management First Edition gives instructors flexibility in teaching self management skills & behavior changes. With this book, students can discuss the design of hypothetical self-management projects in class or design and carry out an actual project to change their own behaviors. More importantly, it will enable students to teach these skills to others, particularly clients in their future careers.
A main feature of this text is the inclusion of application exercises. These exercises can serve two functions. First, they enable students to draw together their answers and solutions in the work sheets provided to form the basis for a program design. Second, the exercises get the students actively involved in the chapter material, promoting a more detailed and full understanding of the concepts and techniques.
New to this Edition:
- Provides students with detailed reasons, procedures, and data forms for doing a functional assessment of a behavior they would like to change, enabling them to define the behavior and determine its antecedents and consequences.
- Shows students how to graph their data and complete a graphic analysis.
- Includes a glossary of key terms in the text and study guide on its companion website.
- Chapter end of material includes application exercises with work sheets that present specific questions that are arranged systematically toward the design of a self-management program.
- Presents the work sheets for the application exercises on the book’s companion website, enabling students to fill them out and e-mail to the instructor, a teaching assistant, or another student.
