The Health Psychology Handbook: Practical Issues for the Behavioral Medicine Specialist
Editat de Lee M. Cohen, Dennis E. McChargue, Frank L. Collinsen Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 aug 2003
The Handbook is divided into four major parts. Part I highlights practical issues faced by health psychologists in a medical setting (how to motivate patients, consultation-liaison, assessment and screening, brief psychotherapies, ethical issues, etc.). Part II concentrates on treating unhealthy behaviors (alcohol and nicotine use, noncompliance, overeating/obesity, physical inactivity, stress). Part III considers behavioral aspects of medical problems (pain management, hypertension, diabetes, cancer, sexual dysfunction, HIV/AIDS, irritable bowel syndrome, insomnia). And Part IV takes up special issues relevant to practice and research in the field (minority issues, women's issues, working with geriatric populations, public health approaches to health psychology and behavioral medicine).
Besides considering health problems, the handbook also discusses professional issues, such as:
Working with a multidisciplinary staff
Conducting research
Evaluating outcomes
Practicing in public health settings
The Handbook will prove an invaluable resource for those already working in the field of health psychology as well as for those in training.
`The editors have developed an excellent sense of the needs of behavioral medicine practitioners... I found myself quite enthusiastic about the ability of the editors to conceptualize the problems of the practitioner and the ways to address them in this volume... The choice of authors is excellent' - William Lovallo, University of Oklahoma & VA Medical Center
