Research on how individuals regulate their behavior has burgeoned in the fi elds of educational and developmental psychology, and we now have a better understanding of effective ways that children have to regulate behavior, as well as challenges that many children face in doing so (Boekaerts, Pintrich, & Zeidner, 2000). Researchers have shown that children who are able to regulate their behavior in school tend to achieve better, and have other positive developmental outcomes (Zimmerman & Cleary, 2009). Given the links of self-regulation and achievement, it is essential to understand the development of self-regulatory processes, and how some children learn to regulate their behavior effectively, while others have challenges in doing so. In their social cognitive models of self-regulation Pintrich and Zusho (2002), Schunk and Ertmer (2000), and Zimmerman (2000) discuss separate phases of self-regulation. The fi rst phase is forethought and planning , where the individual plans his or her course of action and various motivational beliefs, values, and goals are activated. Next is performance monitoring in the learning situation; this phase also involves monitoring of both performance and motivation, and attempts to control these things. For instance, by monitoring their performance students can decide when they may need to change the strategies they are using. Some researchers separate this phase into two phases, monitoring and control (Pintrich & Zusho, 2002). The third phase is refl ections on performance, which occur after the learning activities are completed. During refl ection the student attempts to understand why different outcomes occurred, manage his or her emotions with respect to the achievement outcomes, and otherwise engage in self-evaluation
