This book provides a comprehensive overview of the clinical
phenomenon of pica. It focuses specifically on the disorder as it
presents in children, adolescents, and adults with autism spectrum
disorder (ASD) and intellectual disabilities (ID). Initial chapters
introduce current theories and definitions, followed by a more
detailed examination of how developmental disabilities complicate
diagnosis and intervention. The volume describes evidence-based and
clinically sound approaches to the treatment and prevention of pica
in school and adult clinical settings, ranging from behavioral
treatment to function-based interventions. In addition, it
discusses common diagnostic, client, and provider issues that
result in pica remaining undetected among individuals with ASD and
ID. Featured topics include: Definition of pica in accessible
terms, differentiating between various forms of the disorder.
Issues and practical methods of prevention and treatment of pica in
developmentally disabled persons. Functional and behavioral
assessment methods for pica in individuals with ASD and ID. A range
of effective behavioral and nonbehavioral treatments for pica.
Illustrative cases and service delivery challenges. Areas for
future research and practice. Pica in Individuals with
Developmental Disabilities is an invaluable resource for
researchers, clinicians and other professionals, and graduate
students in clinical child and school psychology, behavior
analysis/therapy, and social work as well as child and adolescent
psychiatry, pediatrics, family studies, and special education.
