Cipani and Schock present this comprehensive guide for mental health practitioners working with clients with problem-behaviors. Aggression, self-injury, stereotypic behavior, tantrums, and non-compliance are just 5 of the broad spectrum of topics discussed. In this book, the editors demonstrate how functional behavioral analytic treatment (FBAT) is the most effective therapeutic method to treat these problem behaviors. They emphasize the use of FBAT in special and general education, in institutions serving clients with developmental and mental disabilities, brain trauma, residential facilities for children with behavior and conduct disorders, and in parent and day care facilities with younger children. This new edition features online resources for both students and instructors, including powerpoint slides, videos, and an instructor's guide. --- from the publisher |
