Self-Management for Children With High-Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders

Lee A. Wilkinson

7708 Red River Rd., West Palm Beach, FL, 33411, wilkinl{at}palmbeach.k12.fl.us

Supporting children with autism spectrum disorders in the general education classroom presents a unique challenge to the teachers and schools that serve them. This article addresses the utility of self-management as a proactive strategy for increasing the task engagement and compliant behavior of high-functioning students with autism. The author discusses the rationale for self-management, outlines the steps for developing an intervention plan, and presents a case vignette to illustrate implementation of a self-management procedure.

Key Words: behavior strategies • autism research/intervention • interventions for challenging behaviors • autism self-management • regulation • high-functioning autism • self-management skills • pivotal behavior • positive behavioral support • inclusive settings
