wants to change the behavior of one person or a small group of
individuals b) One wants to differentially reinforce individuals for
appropriate behavior c) One wants to change everyone's
performance d) All of these. Answer: c) One wants to change
everyone's performance
◉The personal application of behavior change tactics that produces

◉Suggested guidelines for effective and efficient self-monitoring
include: a) Make materials cumbersome and sophisticated b) Never
provide supplementary cues or prompts; this will make the
individual become dependent on the prompts or cues rather than
the target behavior c) Self-monitor the most important dimension of
the target behavior d) Do not reinforce accurate selfmonitoring.
Answer: c) Self-monitor the most important dimension of the target
behavior

Massed Practice d) None of these. Answer: b) Habit Reversal
◉This type of self-management tactic involves self-generated verbal
