  • Offers methods for evaluating intervention programs, starting with cost analysis.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
"Overall, the combination of the traditional subjects, updated and enriched by clinically vivid portraits of the topics, with a healthy infusion of fresh, innovative material, makes this book for now the preferred reference on this topic for practicing clinical psychologists."
Joseph C. Blader
PsycCRITIQUES, July 6, 2011, Vol. 56, Release 27, Article 9
“This book provides a comprehensive overview of what is currently known about child and adolescent behaviour problems. … it’s an easy-to-read resource for both researchers and clinicians who wish to develop a solid theoretical understanding of these problems. It also details practical, evidence-based assessment and intervention options that can be applied across a range of settings and is tailored to meet individual needs, such as parent management strategies, family therapy and cognitive behaviour therapy.” (Danielle Ellis, UTS News Room, November, 2012)
