Helps students achieve their academic and career goals by clarifying the behaviors that they alone are responsible for, explaining why they are important, how they are assessed, and how they can lead to success.

Student Success helps students develop positive behaviors that will lead to success in college and beyond. The book provides a practical framework, how-to exercises, a behavioral observation measurement system, behavioral profiles, self-tests, and a behavioral change methodology for individuals, families, and schools seeking to establish, assess, and improve behavioral performance. It introduces students to the 5C Elements of Behavior: Communication, which conveys appropriateness; Choice, which conveys judgment; Caring, which conveys concern for others; Commitment, which conveys duty; and Coping, which conveys fortitude. These five elements are the core to understanding how students can monitor, measure, and modify their behavior to reach their academic—and ultimately life—goals. Down-to-earth and practical, the book emphasizes real-life situations that all students face, offering them the opportunity to weigh the best solutions for any problem they encounter.

Gian Paolo Roma is Professor and Chair of the Business Programs Department at SUNY Broome Community College, State University of New York.
