This book provides a comprehensive outline of the major parent
training programs for parents of children with intellectual or
developmental disabilities (IDD), including Autism Spectrum
Disorder. Parents or primary caregivers spend the most time with a
child, and training them in behaviour management and intervention
strategies is critical to improving a child's behaviour, to helping
them to learn new skills, and to reduce parental stress. Authored
by eminent specialists in the field and written for researchers and
clinicians supporting or treating families, each chapter focuses on
one of the key evidence-based parent training programs - from
Incredible Years (R) and Positive Family Intervention through to
Pivotal Response Treatment and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
Each chapter provides a breakdown that features an introduction to
the model, evidence for the model, a full description of the model,
a discussion of implementation and dissemination efforts, and
concluding comments. Grounded in research, this definitive overview
provides the evidence and guidance required for anyone considering
investing in or running a parenting program.
