Riguardo questo articolo

There is one page that has some wrinkling / waviness radiating from a central point (see pictures - I am guessing that a drop of water hit the pages and then the book was closed, but that's just a guess). The outer edges of the pages have a few areas of light smudging (see pictures). The bottom outer edge has a small stray mark. The covers have some light wear. The pages are free from markings and highlighting. Nice overall. See pictures for more details.

Riassunto

This book shows psychologists and other mental health providers how to assess and treat emotional and behavioral problems in classrooms, including those arising from autism diagnoses. 

The emotional and behavioral problems of students in the classroom are a major concern for teachers, parents, and administrators. Fifty years of scientific research supports the efficacy of behavioral interventions in the classroom, yet school psychologists and teachers are often unaware of this evidence or of how to apply it.

As diagnoses of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) continue to rise, school psychologists today must have the theoretical and practical knowledge to assess, treat, and intervene on behalf of all children, including those with ASD. This fully updated second edition includes new chapters on screening and diagnosis of ASD, discrete trials training, pivotal response training, verbal behavior interventions, and structured teaching approaches. Contributors also describe interventions for using cognitive behavior therapy with children and families to treat a variety of symptoms and behaviors.
