"As rates of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnoses continue to rise, the need for evidence-based classroom interventions has never been greater. This fully updated text shows psychologists how to assess and implement interventions that target students with ASD and other mental health disorders. Contributors also describe how to use cognitive behavior therapy to treat a variety of symptoms and behaviors. This book provides school psychologists, counselors, social workers, administrators, and teachers with the tools they need to succeed in today's classroom"--
Content:
"This book was designed keeping in mind the abundance of empirical support for behavioral and cognitive behavioral interventions, coupled with the need for school psychologists and other personnel to be equipped with knowledge of these interventions. This edition an entire section devoted to ASD and treatment options for working with this population. It consists of twenty one chapters and organized into three major parts: (I) Foundations of Behavioral Interventions, (II) Working with Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and (III) Cognitive Behavior Therapy. Part I, focuses on foundations. It includes chapters on behavioral assessment, positive behavioral supports, classroom management, reductive procedures, generalization and maintenance, an overview of the extrinsic reinforcement-intrinsic motivation issue. The chapters in this part present information integral to readers in the use of behavioral interventions in the school setting. Part II contains chapters on working with children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This part includes chapters on screening and diagnosis, an overview of applied behavior analysis, discrete trials training, pivotal response training, verbal behavior interventions, video-based interventions, and structured teaching approaches. The chapters in Part II present the major types of behavioral interventions with children with ASD that will give all readers a comprehensive overview of behavioral approaches to evidence-based interventions for children with ASD. The chapters in Part III focus on another competency area it believes is essential for any full-service psychologist in the schools: cognitive behavior therapies. It discusses the role of school psychologists in advancing school mental health programs and services."--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
