WIth the ongoing pressures for psychologists to practice
evidence-based care, and the requirement insurance carriers have
both for treatment goals, measurement of outcomes, and a focus on
brief therapy, functional analysis provides a framework for
achieving all of the above. Having proven itself in treating
behavioral problems in education, functional analysis is now being
applied more broadly to behavioral and psychologial disorders.
In his 1996 book (Functional Analysis in Clinical Psychology, Wiley
UK), Sturmey applied the functional behavioral approach to case
formulation across a wide range of psychological disorders and
behaviors. Since the publication of his book, no other volume has
taken an explicit behavioral approach to case formulation. The
changes that have occurred over the last 10 years in behavioral
case formulation have been significant and substantial. They
include (a) a large expansion of the range of problems addressed,
such as ADHD, (b) a range of new verbal behavior therapies such as
Acceptance and Commitment Therapies, (c) increased area of activity
in the area of autism spectrum disorders; (d) many publications in
how to train professionals, staff and parents in behavioral
technology, and (e) new assessment instruments and procedures.
*Makes theories of functional analysis accessible to a wide range
of mental health professionals
*Reviews behavioral assessment methods and strategies for case
formulation
*Offers readers a practical, organized, data-based means of
understanding psychiatric conditions for intervening effectively
and measuring positive change
