Product Description

Much of the material in this popular text has been rewritten. A new introductory chapter includes preventive behavior-management strategies and a comparison of popular approaches to behavior management. The extensive coverage of data collection is expanded to include new material on trend estimation and interpretation. The first half of the book focuses on traditional behavior modification, and the second half presents a social learning theory approach. Short assessments called checkpoints are embedded within each chapter, in addition to the more comprehensive end-of-chapter assessments, allowing the reader to test his or her understanding of the material as he or she reads it. Concrete examples are used throughout, and many illustrations add humor to the text. This book is ideal for use as a resource for teachers or as an adopted text in basic or advanced behavior-management courses.
