The Marshmallow Test

Self‐Regulation

Unfortunately, many students with challenging behavior lack self‐regulations skills◦ These skills are critical for academic success and developing positive social relationships (Cameto, Levine, Wagner, & Marder, 2004; Carter, Lane Pierson, & Glaser, 2006)

What does it mean to be a self‐regulated learner? (Arslan, 2014)

Establish goal

Determine strategies that support progress toward that goal

Apply strategies

Monitor progress toward goal

A focus on self‐regulation/self‐management

What is self‐monitoring?

A meta‐cognitive skill that involves:(a) teaching students to be aware of their behavior, and then 

(b) students recording whether or not the behavior occurred

Example of “in the moment” self‐monitoring: Are you in your seat right now?

Interval Yes No1:00 X2:00 X3:00 X4:00 X5:00 X6:00 X7:00 X8:00 X9:00 X10:00 XTotal 80% 20%

Behavior: In Seat

Goal: During math class, Juan will be in his seat for 80% of intervals each day for a week.

Example of “retrospective” self‐monitoring: Did you meet classroom expectations during whole group instruction?

Bruhn, McDaniel, & Kreigh, 2015The Role of TechnologyPrompting devices: ◦ helpful for cueing, but not collecting data 

We use technology to self‐monitor so many other things…why not behavior in schools?

was the perfect intervention for her. Her mom at conferences mentioned that her daughter explained how she would always check to see how much time was left before needing to score. She mentioned how her daughter mentioned she would space off, touch the iPad and realize she needed to get back on task. So I attribute it to a student that just needed a visual reminder. Having the iPad on her desk gave her ownership in monitoring her time on task.”

Ask the AudienceWould you be likely to follow the recommendations provided by the app? Why or why not?

51

Preliminary Feedback How did you feel about the recommendations provided by the app? 

“Great! I like that is scores baseline and comes up with goal and suggests a new goal when met. (The less I have to think the better).”

“I generally agreed with the recommendations and thought they matched the data.”

“I was happy when it said it wanted to bump it up and disheartened when the goal needed decreased.”

How did using the app fit into the structure and flow of your classroom? “My other students ignored it after the first few days. It was easy to run and the

student was not bothered by doing it. He rather enjoyed it.”

What did you enjoy or find useful about the app? “I liked being able to talk to [the] student about why he chose the 

score he gave and what I chose.” 

Future DirectionsResearch◦Can we expect differences in fidelity, sustainability, and social validity (as compared to traditional paper/pencil methods?◦Are commercially‐available apps supported by rigorous research?◦ Look at app store and developer websites

Future DirectionsData◦Capitalizing on efficiency and accuracy for data collection, storage, graphing, and adapting◦Creating “expert systems”
