  • Self & Match is a wonderful system for both students with and without disabilities…This system can effectively promote positive behaviors, while simultaneously help decrease disruptive behaviors. The systems allows teachers to pre-plan their intervention and troubleshoot before they even begin to implement it! As a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, I have used this system in educational, residential, clinical, and recreational settings with much success. Modifications need to be made to fit each level of learner, but the system is adaptive enough to allow individualization. I would highly recommend this system for both novice and advanced practitioners.
