There are times when you may want to consider using a specific behavior program, based upon privileges/rewards and consequences. I will be listing three examples below.
1) Barkley's Your Defiant Child
Dr. Russell Barkley is the author of Taking Charge of ADHD, Your Defiant Child and Your Defiant Teen
"Your Defiant Child" is an 8 step program.
Step 1: Pay Attention!
Step 2: Start Earning Peace and Cooperation with Praise
Step 3: When Praise Is Not Enough, Offer Rewards
Step 4: Use Mild Discipline--Time-Out and More
Step 5: Use Time-Out with Other Misbehavior
Step 6: Think Aloud and Think Ahead--What to Do in Public
Step 7: Help the Teacher Help Your Child
Step 8: Moving toward a Brighter Future
2) FAMILY RULES program
"Dr. Johnson realized that parents needed to be taught how to used a “Behavior Modification” program in their home and that the philosophy of “King Arthur’s Round Table” was setting families up to fail when the child returned home from treatment. Therefore, in 1984, Dr. Johnson took approximately 200 volunteer families over a two-year period of time and began putting together a “Behavior Modification” program that would work effectively in the home. They tried this, it worked, and they kept it. They tried that, it didn’t work, and they got rid of it. After working with 200 volunteer families over a two-year period of time “trying this” and “trying that”, Dr. Johnson finally came up with an effective “one size fits all” parenting program that helps moms and dads to do in their homes what the treatment facilities were doing to stabilize the attitudes and behaviors of their “out of control” children. The 200 volunteer families represented a diversity of Ethnicity, Religion, Politics, Socioeconomic differences, and Regional Backgrounds."

Here are some links to a program for setting up rules and consequences for your teens:
1) Barkley's Your Defiant ChildThere are also factors that may make behavior programs either less effective or appropriate as well. These would include when there are trauma issues, emotional intensity, developmental or learning disorders, ADHD or impulsivity problems. There are systems, like Collaborative Problem Solving, that suggest that motivation may not always be the answer, and that your child may need support in skill development. Please see my post on Parenting Approaches.
