Behavior Problems in
Preschool Children
Second Edition
Clinical and Developmental Issues
Susan B. Campbell |
 |
Now in a revised and updated second edition, this essential volume provides a
comprehensive clinical–developmental framework for understanding and treating
behavior problems in early childhood. Examining the developmental tasks and transitions
that young children face in cognitive, social, and family contexts, the book helps readers
distinguish between typical, age-appropriate behaviors and those that may signify a more
persistent problem. Epidemiological and diagnostic information is presented; risk and
protective factors discussed; and intervention approaches reviewed. Including a wealth of
case examples, many chapters in the second edition have been entirely rewritten and all
have been substantially updated to reflect new directions in the burgeoning field of
developmental psychopathology. Incorporated are important new findings on family and peer
influences on development; data from longitudinal outcome studies, prevention trials, and
treatment studies; and recommendations for improving the quality and availability of child
care and early intervention programs.
