Introduction to Child and Adolescent Psychopathology

Kaup valmöguleikar

Introduction to Child and Adolescent Psychopathology provides a comprehensive and practical guide to understanding mental disorders and their evidence-based treatments. Using a developmental psychopathology approach, author Robert Weis opens each chapter with a description of the disorder, including the complete DSM-5-TR criteria, prevalence, and associated features. The causes of each disorder are then analyzed through biological, psychological, and social–cultural lenses, followed by a discussion of evidence-based treatments, using criteria established by the Society of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.
