Highlighting the interplay between basic research and intervention,
this volume focuses on common stressful life experiences that
present significant challenges to children's healthy development.
Fifteen stressors are discussed with regard to both short-and
long-term effects. The authors identify factors that explain
variability in children's adjustment to these stressors and
evaluate preventive interventions designed to facilitate coping.
Notable chapters include a discussion of the many uncontrollable
stressors to which inner-city youth are exposed and a thorough
treatment of children's adaptation to divorce. Each chapter follows
a common outline, allowing comparison among stressors.
