School Consultation

Conceptual and Empirical Bases of Practice

Beschreibung

This innovative volume presents an integrated model of school consultation that combines the theoretically distinct approaches of mental health and behavioral consultation with the empirically validated principles of behavioral analysis, social influence, and social support. This model views the practice of school consultation as the accomplishment of three interrelated tasks: problem solving, social influence, and professional support and development. Ideal for the beginning consultant, the text features a set of three transcribed interviews with a detailed analysis of the three tasks and a tabular comparison of the key dimensions of mental health consultation and mental health collaboration.

Rezensionen

`Although this appears to be a small book, Erchul and Martens have packed it with information...The authors do a thorough job of addressing all known (as established by research) reasons that consultation may fail...If you are currently providing consultation services to the school, then this is a must read book.' Contemporary Psychology, 43:3 (1998)

From the reviews of the third edition:
"Psychologists have become essential consultants in the school system and, although programs have taken root to train behavioral health professionals to work in the school system, this book provides a different approach to effectively administering that role. The intention is to instruct novice psychologists in the art and science of the unique consultant role they will play in the school system. ... intended mainly for school and child clinical psychologists, but also for other clinical or developmental psychologists, school social workers, and special educators." (Christopher J. Graver, Doody's Review Service, September, 2010)
