Description
The Autism and Child Psychopathology Series explores a wide range of research
and professional methods, procedures, and theories used to enhance positive
development and outcomes across the lifespan. Developments in education,
medicine, psychology, and applied behavior analysis as well as child and adolescent
development across home, school, hospital, and community settings are the focus of
this series. Series volumes are both authored and edited, and they provide critical
reviews of evidence-based methods. As such, these books serve as a critical reference
source for researchers and professionals who deal with developmental disorders and
disabilities, most notably autism, intellectual disabilities, challenging behaviors,
anxiety, depression, ADHD, developmental coordination disorder, communication
disorders, and other common childhood problems. The series addresses important
mental health and development difficulties that children and youth, their caregivers,
and the professionals who treat them must face. Each volume in the series provides
an analysis of methods and procedures that may assist in effectively treating these
developmental problems.
