Extract

Three years following the initial behavioral—cognitive treatment for a case of writer's block with his Master's thesis, the subject was faced with writing his doctoral dissertation. Without the prompt or assistance of the original therapist, the subject used the task analysis, chaining, distraction control, and reinforcement procedures to successfully complete the writing project, although without using a formal work schedule. The subject's perceptions of these techniques and their effectiveness during the writing of the dissertation are presented and discussed.
