Child psychology is a constantly expanding field, with dozens of
specialized journals devoted to major disorders springing up in
recent years. With so much information available and the prospect
of overload inevitable researchers and clinicians alike need to
navigate the knowledge base with as much confidence as they do the
nuances of diagnosis and their young clients complex social,
emotional, and developmental worlds.
Treating Childhood Psychopathology and Developmental
Disabilities fills this need by summarizing and critiquing
evidence-based treatment methods for pediatric patients from
infancy through adolescence. After a concise history of
evidence-based treatment, promising new trends, and legal/ethical
issues involved in working with young people, well-known
professors, practitioners, and researchers present the latest data
in key areas of interest, including: (1) Cognitive-behavioral
therapy and applied behavior analysis. (2) The effects of parenting
in treatment outcomes. (3) Interventions for major childhood
pathologies, including ADHD, PTSD, phobias, anxiety, depression,
bipolar disorder, and conduct disorder. (4) Interventions for
autistic spectrum disorders and self-injuring behaviors. (5)
Techniques for improving communication, language, and literacy in
children with developmental disabilities. (6) Treatments for
feeding and eating disorders.
This comprehensive volume is an essential resource for the
researcher s library and the clinician s desk as well as a
dependable text for graduate and postgraduate courses in clinical
child, developmental, and school psychology.
(A companion volume, Assessing Childhood Psychopathology and
Developmental Disabilities, is also available.)"
