Description

Chapters by professionals and parents offer insight on theory, practice, and research in positive behavior support (PBS) with families affected by developmental disabilities and problem behavior. Early chapters describe PBS and look at assessment and intervention in family contexts. Later chapters present case studies of children with different disabilities and families with different compositions and ethnic backgrounds, and describe collaborative approaches to research. Lucyshyn teaches in Educational and Counseling Psychology and Special Education at the University of British Columbia. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) - from Amzon
