Recent estimates (Hallahan & Kauffman, 1978) indicate that over
4. 7 million children, 7.3% of the child population under the age
of 19, are labeled emotionally disturbed, mentally retarded, or
learning-disabled. Moreover, many of these children remain unserved
or are inadequately served. The past decade has produced an
increasing concern with the mental health needs of these children
and their families. This trend had as much impact in behavior
therapy as it did in any other branch of the helping professions.
Behavioral work with children, with its emphasis on skill
development and environmental modification, helped to build into
child psychotherapy a true preventive mental health orientation.
The ease of delivery and application of behavioral procedures
allowed parents and other caregivers to become meaningfully
involved in the clinical process, and so facilitated therapy gains
and the maintenance and generalization of those gains. Perhaps the
most significant change in behavior therapy in the 1970s was the
move beyond interventions derived strictly from learning theories
to applications based on knowledge from a variety of psycho logical
research areas. The cognitive mediational activities of the client
have received special attention, and this book presents the
conceptual, methodological, and clinical issues in contemporary
cognitive behavior therapy with children."
