Abstract
A study skills program should have low time requirements, raise the student’s GPA, and create durable behaviors. Twenty-four male sophomore cadets at the USAF Academy were placed in one of two groups by their rank-order place on a list of academically deficient students. The experimental group and the control group both received normal directive counseling. The experimental group received a behaviorally oriented study skills program requiring two hours of supervisory time and minimal behavior recording and showed a mean increase of .54 GPA points; the control group showed an increase of .02 at the end of the semester. The results indicate this program satisfied the basic requirement of study skills training.
