Full Description
Master the principles and practices of behavioral parent training (BPT), the gold standard for managing noncompliance and aggression in children.
This comprehensive resource is designed for professionals, researchers, and educators, offering an in-depth exploration of BPT's principles, techniques, and applications. It covers key topics such as outcome assessment, cultural adaptations, and implementation challenges, as well as detailed discussions of leading BPT programs—including Parent-Child Interaction Therapy, The Incredible Years, and interventions tailored for ADHD, ASD, and primary care settings.
The handbook also examines emerging trends, such as the integration of technology into modern parenting interventions, and provides practical insights grounded in the latest empirical research. Unlike other texts that touch on aspects of BPT, this volume delivers a single, authoritative source that combines theoretical foundations with actionable strategies for real-world practice.
