Behavior Modification Procedure - A Sourcebook (Hardcover)

Behavior modification has lacked operational procedures to sharpen
techniques and equipment. These aspects have lagged behind the
development of general principles and specialized modification
techniques. This sophisticated sourcebook is devoted exclusively to
the technical details of "how-to-do-it" in behavioral assessment
and practice--an aspect of behavior modification that is relatively
undeveloped despite its significance and that has only recently
received the attention it deserves. The selections contained in
this volume have been drawn from a variety of technical areas and
are organized into six main parts. The first part emphasizes the
importance of technology and procedure in the history of the field,
and in the second part attention is given to guidelines for
practice with individuals and families that may be employed with a
wide variety of problems and patrons in many service settings. The
next part, on interviewing guidelines and style, includes an
interview guide for behavioral counseling and a general discussion
of types of bias and therapist influence in behavioral assessment.
Part four is concerned with observation, recording, and monitoring;
and part five, on schedules and checklists, includes a variety of
schedules and rating forms, including a therapist schedule for
rating family verbal behavior. The last part, on instrumentation in
behavior therapy, contains a chapter that is a major, comprehensive
description and review of electromechanical devices applicable to
behavior modification. Because the book covers procedural details,
it serves not only as a sourcebook but as a volume every practicing
behavior modifier, as well as researchers in behavior therapy and
modification will find useful. Social workers, teachers, clinical
psychologists, psychiatrists, pastoral counselors, and their
students will appreciate this manual covering technical information
required for effective practice.
