Book excerpt: The invaluable resource provides a sophisticated technique for teachers to observe, assess, plan and evaluate to improve pupil behaviour. The book recognises the diverse demands of the modern classroom and explores ways in which asking the right question can help in the development of effective solutions. This is far more than ticking check lists as it will: develop a more rigorous approach to the tracking and assessment of behaviour related issues; deepen understanding about biological, psychological and social factors influencing behaviour; give examples of reflective and diagnostic practice, informing planning for successful interventions; and explore ways of collecting appropriate information to support requests for interventions from other agencies. The pack includes a CD ROM with reflective tasks, diagnostic tools, illustrative poems and a staff Powerpoint for professional development sessions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides comprehensive coverage of all aspects related to pediatric sleep and its associated disorders. It addresses the ontogeny and maturational aspects of physiological sleep and circadian rhythms, as well as the effects of sleep on the various organ systems as a function of development. Organized into nine sections, the book begins with a basic introduction to sleep, and proceeds into an extensive coverage of normative sleep and functional homeostasis. Part three then concisely examines the humoral and developmental aspects of sleep, namely the emerging role of metabolic tissue and the intestinal microbiota in regulation. Parts four, five, and six discuss diagnoses methods, techniques in sleep measurement, and specific aspects of pharmacotherapy and ventilator support for the pediatric patient. Various sleep disorders are explored in part seven, followed by an in-depth analysis of obstructive sleep apnea in part eight. The book concludes with discussions on the presence of sleep issues in other disorders such as Down syndrome, obesity, cystic fibrosis, and asthma. Written by recognized leaders in the field, Pediatric Sleep Medicine facilitates an extensive learning experience for practicing physicians who encounter specific sleep-related issues in their practice.

This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most effective treatments for child and adolescent psychopathology are often family-based, emphasising the active involvement of family members beyond the referred individual. This book details the clinical skills, knowledge, and attitudes that form the core competencies for the delivery of evidence-based family interventions for a range of mental health problems. Offering practical case studies to illustrate treatment principles, and discussing barriers to treatment and problem-solving in relation to common difficulties. Covers topics such as anxiety, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, sleep, and eating disorders. Therapist competencies are thoroughly examined, from the role they play in severe/complex cases and in achieving successful outcomes to commonly misunderstood aspects of family-based interventions and how they can be enhanced. Clinical approaches to working with diverse families, and those of children affected by parental psychopathology, child maltreatment and family violence are also explored. Essential reading for psychologists, psychiatrists, paediatricians, mental health nurses, counsellors and social workers.

Book excerpt: This handbook provides an overview of the nature, prevalence, and causes of sleep problems in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and examines the process of using functional behavior assessment (FBA) to treat sleep disorders. It describes several evidence-based treatments and explores how these align with the outcomes of the FBA process, including case illustrations of the assessment and treatment process. The handbook discusses the application of FBA in family contexts, including: The effects on children and families of successful interventions with sleep. How to conduct FBA with clinically complex families. Including the child in the intervention. The evidence of efficacy of other treatment approaches. The handbook addresses sleep problems that are highly prevalent among children and young people with ASD, including sleep onset delay, frequent and prolonged night waking, and unwanted co-sleeping. It explores the profound secondary effects that sleep problems may have on children’s daytime functioning as well as child and parent health and wellbeing. The handbook discusses the causes of sleep problems in individuals with ASD, which may be multifaceted and complex and include physiological, environmental, cognitive etiologies yet almost always have a behavioral or learned component. It examines how FBA can be used to characterize challenging behaviors and identify the antecedents (e.g., environmental context) and consequences that affect such behaviors. The volume details the process of using FBA to assess and treat sleep problems in children with ASD. Clinical Handbook of Behavioural Sleep Treatment in Autism is a must-have resource for clinicians, therapists, and other practitioners as well as researchers and graduate students in clinical child and school psychology, behavioral therapy, social work, public health, developmental psychology, pediatrics, family studies, and child and adolescent psychiatry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This cutting-edge resource provides a comprehensive review of available assessment tools for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), presenting up-to-date evidence for their efficacy as well as best practice for selecting appropriate forms of assessment across the lifespan. Gathering together the latest international research evidence, Kenneth J. Aitken provides a clear evaluation of the commonly used assessment measures, and examines other tools not yet validated for ASD assessment but which are likely to have promising applications for the field. The tools covered include those relating to core assessment areas, such as cognitive ability, communication, motor skills and executive function, as well as supplementary and emerging areas of assessment, such as behaviour and attention, sensory issues, anxiety and depression, friendships and loneliness, and internet safety. This pioneering report will be an indispensable primary reference for researchers, academics, clinicians, service providers and commissioners.
