Abstract: Although self-management strategies in general and self-monitoring specifically appeared to be effective in improving the on-task behaviors of students with Intellectual Disabilities (IDs) due in part to their obtrusiveness for undesired behaviors, versatility, and reactivity effect (Cooper et al., 2020; Riden et al., 2021; Wood et al., 2002), there is limited research on the generalization and maintenance. In the current study, self-management interventions (i.e., self-monitoring, self-evaluation, token economy) was used to improve the on-task behaviors of 4 students with IDs in general education classrooms for over 20 weeks. A single-case multiple-baseline across-participants design was used. Based on two statistical analyses (i.e., Tau-U and Performance Criteria Based Effect Size [PCES]), the effect of self-management interventions was immediate, generalized across settings, and maintained over a long period of time.
