Description and Table of Contents

Description

This study both distils current findings about behaviour management and offers practical suggestions for applying new techniques in the classroom. With growing pressure to accommodate children of varying background and with varied problems in the classroom, school psychologists and special education personnel are increasingly required to provide evaluation and management strategies for children with behavioural problems. This book is intended to supply the expert professional with the knowledge necessary to provide such services. It should be appropriate as a professional reference as well as an advanced text.
