“You are about to take a pleasant journey – one that begins with scientific research, based on the principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), and ends with the practical skills that can enable you to be a more effective and fulfilled educator/practitioner. With their unique system, Self & Match, Jamie Salter and Katharine Croce provide educators/practitioners with a roadmap for managing their classrooms in an effective and compassionate manner…” -Saul Axelrod, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, Temple University
Dr. Saul Axelrod has been a key figure in the behavior analytic community for over 40 years. We are overjoyed that Dr. Axelrod penned the foreword for The Self & Match System.

Tell me more about how the Self & Match System works…
The 7th edition of The Self & Match System: Systematic Use of Self-Monitoring as a Behavior Intervention is a manualized tool to systematically teach self-monitoring in homes, schools, and community settings in order to enhance behavioral success.
- Prior to beginning Self & Match System, a roadmap “Considerations Guide” is completed in order to consider all of the necessary steps to successfully implement the intervention
- Self & Match forms are then created to align with each individual’s or classroom’s goals*
- When it’s time to complete the Self & Match form, there are 5 steps that are embedded within the procedure (listed below)
- Because each factor on the Self & Match forms is customized, the tool can be successfully implemented with individuals of various ages and can be modified to fit each learner and adjusted to help each individual meet their goals!
*There are digital tools available to help you create your Self & Match forms in our online portal!
