After briefly reviewing the topic of self‐control instruction for retarded students, this article describes a self‐recording training procedure. Five moderately retarded adolescents were taught to self‐record a training behavior. They were then expected to generalize the self‐recording behavior to idiosyncratic behaviors. Subject‐observer agreement is reported, along with monitoring effect on the idiosyncratic behaviors.
