Increasing the Maintenance of Self-Control Treatments Through Faded Counselor Contact and High Information Feedback

Richards, C. Steven; And Others

Journal of Counseling Psychology, 23, 4, 405-406, Jul 76

Using a bibliocounseling system, college students (n=97) concerned about academic achievement tested fading counselor contact and increasing information feedback as treatment maintenance techniques. Testing included a no-contact control group (n=21). Fading contact was more effective than steady contact and increasing information feedback had no effect on maintenance. Implications are discussed.
