Rehabilitation psychology is one of the fastest growing fields in
applied psychology and involves the application of psychological
knowledge and skills to the understanding and treatment of
individuals with physical disabilities. Rehabilitation
psychologists aim to optimize outcomes in terms of health,
independence, and daily functioning while also minimizing secondary
health problems. The Oxford Handbook of Rehabilitation Psychology
provides background and overview of the associated psychological
processes and types of interventions that are critical in managing
the consequences of disability and chronic disease. Psychological
models and research have much to contribute to those working with
the physical disabilities; this volume has a broad cognitive
behavioral focus within the general banner of the biopsychosocial
framework. The editor has successfully brought together
contributions from a range of well-established and experienced
researchers and practitioners from a wide variety of clinical and
academic contexts. They highlight the critical psychological
aspects, review applied interventions, and consider the wider
conceptual, clinical and professional themes associated with
disability and society.
