Three students with autism were taught to self‐manage a DRO program to reduce their disruptive behavior. During baseline conditions, all students showed high rates of disruptive behavior (either out‐of‐seat or nail‐flicking). Students were taught to self‐manage a DRO program during external reinforcement and prompted self‐management conditions. Student gains were maintained during unprompted self‐management and follow‐up conditions. ©1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
