Synopsis

This effective self-help book presents a workable set of skills that readers can use for tackling their own self-modification programs, whether it be to improve self-confidence in dating, control overeating, implement and exercise program, or give up smoking. The authors' goal is to teach the basic skills necessary for readers to modify the behavior of their own choice, (66%-84% of the students employing these methods have achieved their self-change goals according to published studies in the literature). Once students have applied the principles to a behavior, they'll find it easier to use the skills in different settings.

Review

Self Directed Behavior: Self-Modification For Personal Adjustment is an effective self-hep book that presents a workable set of skills readers can use for tackling their own self-modification programs, whether it be to improve self-confidence in dating, control overeating, implement an exercise program, or give up smoking. Self Directed Behavior teaches the basic skills necessary for a reader to modify the behavior of their own choice. And once readers have applied the principles outlined to a specific behavior, they'll find it easier to use those same skills in different settings. Of special value is the material by G. A. Marlatt on relapse prevention. Self-Directed Behavior is a valuable addition to any academic, counseling, personal, or community library self-help reference shelf. -- Midwest Book Review
