Abstract: 
In a sample of 119 fourth graders, we examined the effects of a curriculum-integrated story-writing training on strategy-related and performance-related measures of story quality and subjective indicators of writing competence. Students who received the writing strategies training in conjunction with self-regulation procedures (self-regulated writing strategies condition) were compared with students who were taught the same strategies but received no instruction in self-regulation procedures (writing strategies condition). In both conditions, the training period covered a 5-week interval (one 90 min session per week) in which all students were taught strategies for planning and composing narratives (picture stories) in small groups. At posttest and follow-up assessments (6 weeks after completion of the training), students of the self-regulated writing strategies condition outperformed students of the writing strategies condition in (a) strategy-related story variables (content, vocabulary, coherence), (b) a holistic measure of story quality, and (c) writing-related self-assessments of self-efficacy and their self-concept of ability. At an untrained transfer task (a personal narrative) students of the self-regulated writing strategies condition also displayed superior task performance.
