ABSTRACT
The growing interest of neuropsychologists in methods of intervention has been accompanied by an increasing recognition of the potential utility of self-regulation procedures. Self-regulation refers to behavior sequences in which the individual actively participates in generating and maintaining newly learned responses. Self-regulation models and clinical strategies have enjoyed considerable popularity and success in application to neurologically normal patient groups, and in application to the brain-impaired patient has increased in recent years. The focus of this chapter is on the assessment, the theoretical foundations, and empirical support that surround the clinical application of self-regulation therapy with brain-injured (BI) patients.
