This handbook addresses a broad range of topics relating to
children's social behaviors and skills. It examines numerous
disorders and problems that are directly affected by excesses and
deficits of social skills. The book begins by providing an overview
of the history and definition of social skills, citing it as a
critical aspect of children's development. Chapters discuss
developmental issues, provide theories of social competence, and
assemble proven strategies for promoting the growth of social
skills and for treating their deficits. The handbook also reviews a
variety of methods for assessing various social competencies,
including direct and naturalistic observation, skills checklists,
self-reports, and functional behavior analysis. In addition, it
provides a comprehensive overview of various training methods,
including social learning, parent and peer treatments, self-control
methods, social skill group programs, and curricula. Topics
featured in the Handbook include: Current research and practical
strategies for promoting children's social and emotional competence
in schools. Social skills in children with autism spectrum
disorder. Intellectual disabilities and their effect on social
skills. Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and its effect on
the development of social skills in children. Evidence-based
methods of dealing with social difficulties in conduct disorder.
The Handbook of Social Behavior and Skills in Children is a
must-have resource for researchers, graduate students, clinicians,
and related therapists and professionals in clinical child and
school psychology, pediatrics, social work, developmental
psychology, behavioral therapy/rehabilitation, child and adolescent
psychiatry, and special education.
