Abstract
An evaluative review of some of the existing evidence on self-management is presented. After a preliminary clarification of terms, several contemporary research issues are discussed: (1) the relative efficacy of various self-management techniques, (2) the current status of self-imposed consequences, (3) the viability of Premackian extrapolations to self-management, (4) the role of stimulus variable (5) covert behavior modification, and (6) the necessary conditions for maintenance of self-managing behaviors. Very little research has been addressed to these issues. Moreover, methodological problems have jeopardized the significance of some selfmanagement inquiries. The need for expanding research into the component processes and controlling variable of self-management phenomena is emphasized.
