Sinossi

Behavior therapy has made significant inroads into a number of clinical problems. Recently, an American Psychological Association task force concluded that behavioral treatments for problems such as skill deficits, panic disorder phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder, etc., can be "validated." With a move away from contemporary learning research, this book is the right book at the right time. In recent years, behavior therapists have largely not kept up with the developments in learning research and theory. This book attempts to improve the field's future prospects by providing a readable, comprehensive, and accurate description of contemporary learning research. This edited volume covers all of the major dimensions of the field and encourages clinicians to apply contemporary learning research to clinical problems. Topics include: classical conditioning, inhibition, obsessive-compulsive disorders, latent inhibition, punishment, extinction, stimulus equivalence, and much more. Current and future clinicians and behavior therapists.

Product Description

Learning And Behavior Therapy discusses the future of behavior therapy and its roots in learning theory and research. In its beginning, behavior therapy applied what was then current learning theory and research to clinical problems. This edited work is an attempt to improve behavior therapy's future by providing a readable, thorough, and accurate description of contemporary learning research. Dr. O'Donohue, along with his contributors, has developed a comprehensive volume which examines how behavior therapists can benefit from utilizing current learning results as applied to clinical problems. Because of its coverage of basic learning research and theory, this text can also be used in an advanced undergraduate or graduate course on learning.
