The invention relates to a method for improving the control behavior of an electronic motor vehicle braking system which comprises at least a slip control function. Wheel dynamic information which is evaluated as a criterion for initiating a control intervention is used individually for each wheel and is compared with control thresholds for a pressure reduction phase, a pressure maintenance phase, and a pressure buildup phase for generating corresponding braking torques by means of a vehicle braking system. According to the invention, the expected acceleration change of a vehicle wheel is calculated from a pressure change at said wheel, said pressure change being caused by a control intervention; the actual acceleration change at the vehicle wheel, said acceleration change being caused by the pressure change, is determined from measured wheel speeds as wheel dynamic information; and the control behavior of the slip control is adapted when the actual acceleration change deviates from the expected acceleration change by a defined degree such that the deviation is minimized.
