Many recent books in clinical psychology with children and
adolescents have highlighted the use of neuropsychological
assessment, neuroscience, and clinical interventions for complex
developmental and neurological disorders -- but not for the most
common behavioral disorders that present in this young population.
Neuropsychological Assessment and Intervention for Youth serves to
fill this significant void in the professional literature. This
comprehensive text translates basic brain science into
empirically-supported clinical assessments and interventions for
children. Co-editors Reddy, Weissman, and Hale -- all first-rate
clinical researchers -- selected the emotional and behavioral
disorders examined in each chapter based on their high prevalence
in children and adolescents (e.g., OCD, ADHD, anxiety disorders,
conduct disorders, etc.). As such, it serves as the first published
text bridging the gap between neuropsychological evaluation and
clinical interventions for youth with emotional and behavioral
disorders. This is a timely and important issue as emerging
researchers -- and the field at large -- gain greater awareness of
the intersection between neuropsychology and clinical practice.
Written for clinicians and other practitioners who are involved
with treating children and adolescents with prevalent emotional and
behavioral disorders in this young population, Neuropsychological
Assessment and Intervention for Youth will also appeal to clinical
researchers and to students in graduate psychology courses.
