Description
Through an insightful and precise integration of developmental, clinical-diagnostic, and experimental perspectives on child and adolescent psychopathology, Abnormal Child Psychology 7th Edition by Eric Mash and David Wolfe stands as one of the most esteemed, authoritative, and comprehensive resources currently available in academia. This textbook is meticulously organized to align with DSM-5 categories, dimensional classification methods, and evidence-based approaches to treatment and evaluation, ensuring a robust understanding for a diverse readership.
Delving into the intricate journey of each disorder, this ebook elucidates how child psychopathology is inherently influenced by a confluence of psychological, biological, and sociocultural factors that interact dynamically with a child’s environment. The inclusion of case histories, personal narratives, and illustrative case examples breathes life into the theoretical aspects of disorders, making complex concepts more accessible and relatable.
One of the defining features of this bestselling text is the authors’ commitment to showcasing how children with psychological challenges behave in their everyday contexts—be it in schools, communities, or at home. With a forward-looking approach, the textbook also explores advanced dimensional classification techniques as well as contemporary, evidence-based treatment modalities. Readers will benefit from the latest research findings and innovative theories related to the predominantly inattentive ADHD subtype, the tripartite model of child anxiety, early-onset and developmental propensity models for conduct disorder, childhood depression, and autism spectrum disorders.
