Using Self-Monitoring to Improve On-Task Behavior and Academic Performance of High School Students with Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder

Graham, Kristall J.

Abstract Details

2007, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, EDU Teaching and Learning.
This study used audio-taped chimes and a student checklist for on-task/ off-task behavior. The study took place in a high school study hall specifically for students with disabilities. The three participants were tenth graders and had the diagnosis of ADHD. The observers used a 10-second whole interval recording system to record on-task/ off-task behavior within an alternating treatment design. The conditions included: Baseline, Self-Monitoring, and Self-Monitoring with Reinforcement. Results indicate self-monitoring alone was effective enough to significantly increase the on-task behavior of two participants. Additional reinforcement was needed to increase the on-task behavior of the third student.
