Introduction to Primary Care Behavioral Pediatrics

A Guide for Behavior Analysts

Beschreibung

This book is a comprehensive yet practical guide to the practice of primary care behavioral pediatrics for behavior analysts.

Practitioners of this subspecialty work collaboratively with caregivers, educators, pediatricians, and pediatric specialists to bring about success for primarily neurotypical children experiencing difficulties with everything from sleep and cooperation to attention, anxiety, and toileting. This book reviews the historical and theoretical foundations of the subspecialty and provides practical guidance for problem conceptualization, assessment, case formulation, treatment planning, science-based behavioral treatment, caregiver treatment adherence, multidisciplinary collaboration, and ethical practice.

A cornerstone for the field, Introduction to Primary Care Behavioral Pediatrics is essential for graduate students, practitioners of behavior analysis, and anyone interested in science-based pediatric behavioral healthcare.

Rezensionen

"Dr. McGinnis takes on a topic of critical potential growth for applied behavior analysts and articulates not only why ABA practitioners might want to pursue this nontraditional path, but also the practical considerations of how to get it done with research-informed guidance."

Keith D. Allen, PhD, BCBA-D, Professor of Psychology and Director of Academic Affairs, Munroe-Meyer Institute for Genetics and Rehabilitation, University of Nebraska Medical Center, USA

"This is THE text every behavior analyst needs to help them effectively conceptualize and treat everyday problems of childhood and become a significant part of standard pediatric practice."

Jon S. Bailey, PhD, BCBA-D, Emeritus Professor, Florida State University, USA

"There is limited training in medical residency on behavioral strategies for children and adolescents. This is a great guide for all pediatricians and should be required reading for all pediatric residents."

Shannon Fox-Levine, MD, FAAP, Pediatrician & President, Palm Beach Pediatric Society, USA
