El León, la bruja y el ropero

An extraordinary resource for school psychologists and other school mental health professionals. Suldo very competently makes the case that happiness lies at the core of psychological wellness and that the promotion of well-being is an effective agent of intervention. The book meticulously organizes the evidence for the manualized Well-Being Promotion Program and other high-quality interventions that are ecological, family-focused, and integrated within comprehensive school mental health services. All of these strategies are eminently doable because Suldos rich appendices provide copies of measures, the manual for the Well-Being Promotion Program, and multiple other tools that enable practitioners to immediately translate the concepts into practice. This would be a great text for a course preparing school psychology students to deliver evidence-based interventions in schools or clinics."--Beth Doll, PhD, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, College of Education and Human Sciences, University of NebraskaLincoln "This superb book provides school mental health professionals with invaluable practical guidance for fostering childrens subjective well-being. It presents broad-based techniques for implementing positive psychology interventions in the classroom and family contexts, including ways to integrate them into multi-tiered systems of support. An absolute &#39;must have&#39; for anyone interested in promoting and protecting well-being in youth."--Carmel Proctor, PhD, Director, Positive Psychology Research Centre, Guernsey, Channel Islands "The landscape and challenges of student life are changing quickly and the most successful students are armed with knowledge of their strengths as well as tools for building resiliency and happiness. Suldo&#39;s book is unique in offering extensive reviews of assessments and programming together with an actual, proven program protocol that practitioners can pick up and use. I am eager to use the Well-Being Promotion Program in my small groups and individual counseling sessions, and to help incorporate Suldos important efforts into my districts existing socialemotional learning work."--Jennifer Leverentz, SSP, NCSP, school psychologist, Twin Groves Middle School, Buffalo Grove, Illinois "This book synthesizes available scientific work into one reliable source while offering practical guidance on how to improve student well-being. Detailed program plans, well-being measures, and parent and teacher notes are sure to stimulate the delivery and evaluation of school-based well-being programs--what a gift to school staff and researchers, and ultimately to the young people whose lives will be improved as a result. Finally, we have a commonsense, thorough approach to promoting youth well-being. Suldo skillfully dovetails the research and practitioner perspectives with a systems framework for promoting sustained benefits. She has given us a solid building block for future work in the field."--Dianne Vella-Brodrick, PhD, Centre for Positive Psychology, Melbourne Graduate School of Education, University of Melbourne, Australia "I love the proactiveness of Suldo&#39;s approach. Promoting subjective well-being in the school is a refreshing contrast to traditional, more reactive school-based psychological services."--Dawn Donner-Chambers, LPC, school counselor, Oregon School District, Wisconsin-Promoting Student Happiness is a good addition to any school social worker's repertoire, especially for focusing on improving students' sense of well-being and satisfaction through interventions with students, families, and teachers. Each session of the curriculum can be used individually and is appropriate for use in a social work office or classroom.--School Social Work Journal, 10/2/2017ƒƒIntegrating positive psychology interventions with other evidence-based mental health practices and delivering such programming in a multitiered framework has promise. This is an idea whose time has come. This is an excellent book with broad appeal and potential for significant positive impact. It could be adjunctive reading in any graduate program in which positive psychology is addressed. It is highly recommended that this book become part of any school psychology graduate programming, teacher training program, as well as in programs for school administrators and other support personnel.--Child and Family Behavior Therapy, 3/1/2017

If you are looking for current research and ideas on the origins of the social mind and brain, this is the book. Prominent researchers provide thorough coverage of cutting-edge work in behavioral and developmental neuroscience. An excellent introduction to the field.--Philippe Rochat, PhD, Department of Psychology, Emory UniversityLegerstee, Haley, and Bornstein have put together a stunning volume on how the mind of the infant comes into being. Each chapter genuinely adds to our understanding of the process. The reader will come away with a more complex--and simultaneously coherent--understanding of how infants develop self-awareness and connect to the social world. It's no surprise that the book is as good as it is; each of the editors has made unique and major contributions to the field.--Ed Tronick, PhD, University Distinguished Professor of Psychology, University of Massachusetts-BostonThis superlative book takes readers on a journey into the inner recesses of the infant mind, from the emergence of intersubjectivity to the growth of dynamic human thriving. Understanding these developments has required creative and meticulous behavioral observations by many investigators, whose work is summarized here. The volume illuminates the primary-process skills that allow infants to interact with supportive others, and shows how social learning shapes enculturated mental functions within infant brains. This volume is an exceptional text for graduate courses in human development as well as a sourcebook for anyone interested in the modern developmental sciences of human nature and nurture.--Jaak Panksepp, PhD, Baily Endowed Chair of Animal Well-Being Science, College of Veterinary Medicine, Washington State UniversityThis impressive integrative volume furnishes a panoramic view of how the brain is rooted in early experiences, how the mind is formed from concrete action patterns and interpersonal exchanges, and how psychopathology is embedded in normative growth. A leading group of researchers charts a new agenda for developmental science. This book offers a unique frame for inquiry into questions that have baffled philosophers and scientists for centuries: What is it that makes us human, and how does it come about?--Ruth Feldman, PhD, Gonda Multidisciplinary Brain Research Center, Bar-Ilan University, Israel; Child Study Center, Yale University-_x000D_Recommended. Upper-division undergraduate, graduate, and research collections.--Choice, 10/16/2013ƒƒ_x000D_“This excellent collection provides the specialist with summaries of research in many of the subdisciplines of developmental neuroscience….A valuable addition to the developmental neuroscience literature.”--PsycCRITIQUES, 11/20/2013

Origins of the Social Brain

The Infant Mind

"This comprehensive, superbly written and edited second edition provides a vital conceptual framework for considering child mental health, with tutorials on brain development, sensitive periods, and the impact of the early caregiving environment. It examines specific disorders that appear during the preschool period and describes interventions that have proven efficacious. This book should be required reading for child mental health professionals and developmental researchers."--Charles A. Nelson III, PhD, Professor of Pediatrics and Neuroscience, Harvard Medical School; Richard David Scott Chair, Boston Childrens Hospital "This very timely volume is a valuable resource for students and clinicians interested in the mental health of preschoolers. It has the rare virtue of being remarkably readable while providing a scholarly review of recent advances in early psychopathology and its treatment. Luby has made an important contribution to disseminating knowledge about the psychiatric conditions and therapeutic interventions of early childhood."--Alicia F. Lieberman, PhD, Irving B. Harris Endowed Chair in Infant Mental Health and Professor, Department of Psychiatry, University of California, San Francisco "Invaluable. All mental health disciplines are increasingly recognizing the importance of early development, and the critical need for clinicians to apply knowledge of early disruptions and adversity to growth and psychopathology models. This book offers tools from research to construct more effective interventions. I have used the book as a text with graduate students in social work, psychology, education, and child psychiatry, and recommend it strongly."--Anne R. Gearity, PhD, Department of Psychiatry, University of Minnesota "A masterful and nuanced revision of an outstanding work, and one that I am sure will be referred to frequently. Readers will find much that is both scientifically and clinically useful as the chapters cogently summarize the state of the science in an accessible manner. Most impressive about this second edition is the strong developmental neuroscience theme, including coverage of normative early childhood brain development and the neural substrates of particular clinical problems."--Lauren S. Wakschlag, PhD, Professor and Vice Chair for Scientific and Faculty Development, Department of Medical Social Sciences, Northwestern University "This second edition presents a comprehensive approach for understanding preschool mental health issues, expanding on the first edition. An increased focus on brain development and neurological issues reminds us of the biological underpinnings of development and behavior. At the same time, attention to environmental factors underscores the importance of early detection and intervention. A wide range of professionals who work with young children and their families should consider this resource as indispensable for informing their practice."--Robin L. Hojnoski, PhD, School Psychology Program, Lehigh University-The organization of the handbook and the concise chapters divided into clinically relevant topics result in an easy to read guide on the often challenging topic of early childhood mental health. The divisions by diagnoses are the most helpful as they provide a quick but informative overview of a topic. This is a valuable resource for clinicians to use to easily reference a topic and get sufficient, but not burdensome, information. Part III is especially informative as it discusses therapies for early childhood intervention and provides only the necessary information.--Doody's Review Service, 2/2/2017ƒƒA milestone in understanding preschool psychiatric disorders has been reached with the publication of the Handbook of Preschool Mental Health...which offers significant insights on development and its influences on the onset of preschool mental disorders....This book is a rich source of information useful to practicing clinicians, including psychiatrists, pediatricians, family physicians, psychologists, and allied professionals, and to students of medicine. (on the first edition)--Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, 1/1/2008ƒƒShould appeal to professionals working with preschool age children….The book should increase awareness of mental health in preschool age children and knowledge of age-appropriate assessments, and interventions applicable to both school and home settings. (on the first edition)--Physical and Occupational Therapy in Pediatrics, 1/1/2007ƒƒA well-written and comprehensive work, appropriate for use by clinicians and trainees in psychiatry, psychology, nursing, and social work. It is also a useful resource for others who work with young children, including early childhood educators and pediatricians. It does an excellent job of pointing out the role of child development in the assessment and treatment of preschool children. Thoughtful and thought provoking, it encourages consultation and collaboration among disciplines. (on the first edition)--Journal of Child and Adolescent Psychopharmacology, 1/1/2007

L' oeuvre musicale contemporaine à l'épreuve du concept

I like the book and it meshes well with what I plan to do in my course. I particularly like the generalizability theory, norms and test equating, scaling, and validation process chapters. It is very easy reading--I am planning to use the book next spring."--R. J. de Ayala, PhD, Chair of Educational Psychology, University of NebraskaLincoln "I encourage all psychologists and educators to read this marvelous book. I learned a lot from reading it. The key terms are very useful, as are the chapter summaries. Readers of all levels will find material relevant to them, including SPSS code and GfGc datasets on intelligence that will be quite useful in trying out the ideas. I give this book my highest recommendation and think it will be a great classroom text."--John J. McArdle, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Southern California "This book is both comprehensive and accessible, laying the foundation for all the requisite skills needed to be both a successful consumer and producer of psychometrics. Scholars who are unfamiliar with measurement could easily teach themselves from this text, becoming quite proficient at psychometrics. There is excellent integration of quantitative statistics throughout, so that readers will be able not only to understand the psychometric concepts, but also to apply their knowledge. This is a useful text for a graduate-level Psychometric Methods or Measurement class."--Debbie L. Hahs-Vaughn, PhD, Department of Educational and Human Sciences, University of Central Florida "An encyclopedia of psychometric issues--a real &#39;must have&#39; for anyone teaching Tests and Measurement or Research Methods, or directing student research projects. The book&#39;s high level of detail makes it invaluable for any professional who works with, creates, or analyzes psychometric material. The use of intelligence testing data throughout the chapters helps bring cohesiveness."--John Wallace, PhD, Department of Psychological Science, Ball State University "With vast expertise in psychometric instrument development, statistical applications, and research, Price has produced a theoretically informed, practical volume. Professionals in health-related fields will find this book extremely valuable for guidance in the development of rigorous instruments, such as patient-reported outcome measures. Featuring examples using a range of software, this text is ideal for graduate courses on measurement in schools of medicine, public health, nursing, or health professions."--Byron J. Gajewski, PhD, Department of Biostatistics, University of Kansas Medical Center-This book is suitable for emerging assessment professionals and practitioners who are interested in learning psychometrics but with little knowledge in statistics. It provides not only a theoretical foundation to the topics but also worked examples to highlight their practical applications. The syntax, output, and interpretations based on software programs like SPSS and BILOG-MG will help readers to bridge theory and methods with hands-on examples. This book would be a convenient toolbox for applied researchers who would like to conduct psychometric analyses, and it would also serve as a handbook for graduate students who study measurement and psychometrics.--Psychometrika, 3/29/2019ƒƒThis excellent book explores the basic concepts of psychometric knowledge and practice….This would be a great addition to the libraries of graduate students and researchers.--Doody's Review Service, 3/17/2017

"Take the worlds leading authorities on the psychology of the self and ask them to write about what they know best, and you have the Handbook of Self and Identity. Now in its second edition, this remarkable handbook offers the first and last word on this important subject."--Daniel Gilbert, PhD, Department of Psychology, Harvard University "Building on the strengths of the first edition, the editors have assembled an all-star team of experts to address classic topics and emerging areas of inquiry into the many and varied facets of self and identity. Bringing together individual and social perspectives, this handbook serves as a powerful reminder that self and identity are rooted in biological, social, and cultural contexts, and have far-reaching consequences for how people think, feel, and act as individuals and as members of relationships and groups. Quite simply, this handbook is a &#39;must read.&#39;"--Mark Snyder, PhD, McKnight Presidential Chair in Psychology, University of Minnesota "I was tempted to assign nearly every chapter of this volume in my graduate Self and Identity class. Each chapter is cogent, neatly summarizes past work, and provides insights into future directions. The Handbook has been an outstanding text for this course."--Jeffrey Green, PhD, Department of Psychology, Virginia Commonwealth University-_x000D_Handbook of Self and Identity is dynamite....Almost every finding relates uncannily to the issues my patients bring to sessions....The editors' care and scrutiny are evident throughout this attractive volume. The book is well-organized, well-indexed, and easy to read.--Psychiatric Services, 12/30/2011ƒƒ_x000D_Terrific. A handbook should provide a comprehensive and current review of the field it covers, and the Handbook of Self and Identity delivers in each respect. This handbook would make a fine introduction in an advanced undergraduate course (assuming knowledgeable and engaged students), and an even better review of the field for graduate students....The book is also valuable to professionals working in the areas of self and identity.--PsycCRITIQUES, 12/30/2011ƒƒThis is a well-written book by influential authors who are experts in this field....It is an important book for researchers and clinicians.--Doody's Reviews, 10/1/2012ƒƒProvides a useful overview for advanced students and researchers interested in the self, and, more important, some needed perspective on the way forward.--PsycCRITIQUES, 12/19/2012ƒƒThis is a very useful collection of essays for the researchers and academicians in philosophy, cognitive science and neuroscience as well as in psychology and especially in social and cognitive psychology....A very timely and valuable contribution to the current interdisciplinary discussions of  the self, especially given the recent upsurge in theoretical and empirical interest in self-related topics. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to have a broader understanding of the self and how our identities are shaped in a social, historical, psychological and neurological point of view.--Metapsychology Online Reviews, 2/26/2013

Amidst a sea of political controversy surrounding early reading instruction, this book offers the most up-to-date and definitive research perspectives available today. While dealing fully and well with the importance of phonemic awareness and decoding, it places reading within the wider context of language development and child development. I particularly applaud the stress on children, rich and poor, learning to read in such a way that they don&#8217;t just pass reading tests, but are successful learners in the content areas throughout their school years. This book is essential reading, cover to cover, for anyone interested in reading and literacy.--James Paul Gee, PhD, Department of Curriculum and Instruction, University of Wisconsin-MadisonThis extraordinarily valuable resource brings together the work of knowledgeable and credible scholars in a variety of areas related to early literacy research. Writing in a manner that is accessible to both researchers and practitioners, the contributors go beyond updating us on the vast amount of accumulated knowledge on emerging and early literacy. They help us make sense of its applications to our work with young children and those who care for and teach them.--Dorothy S. Strickland, PhD, Department of Learning and Teaching, Graduate School of Education, Rutgers, The State University of New JerseyThis book is brimming with research-based insights into foundational topics in early literacy learning and instruction, including vocabulary development, phonemic awareness, the role of policy, and sociocognition. It also contributes to a growing knowledge base in such cutting-edge areas as the role of caregiver-teacher collaboration, second language learning, brain imaging, and early educational interventions. Delving deeply into early childhood literacy issues, this book will make a powerful contribution as a guiding text for researchers, graduate students, and educators.--Linda D. Labbo, PhD, Department of Language and Literacy, University of GeorgiaI used both Volumes 1 and 2 in a course on theory and research in early literacy. The texts provided my graduate students with contemporary theoretical frameworks and addressed a range of questions commonly asked by those engaged in dissertation research. I would definitely use these books again.--Olivia Saracho, PhD, Department of Curriculum and Instruction, University of Maryland, College Park-

Handbook of Early Literacy Research, Volume 2

"RFCBT is a natural and useful extension of CBT that is applicable to many, if not most, chronically or recurrently depressed individuals. Watkins has translated lessons from the laboratory and clinical work into a well-formulated, clearly described intervention. In addition to drawing on CBT and behavioral activation, RFCBT incorporates many unique and original strategies. It helps patients to develop effective alternatives to habitual and dysfunctional ruminative patterns, and to become more &#39;concrete&#39; and actively oriented toward problem solving instead of abstract, reflective, and passive."--Constance Hammen, PhD, Distinguished Research Professor, Departments of Psychology and Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, University of California, Los Angeles "Rumination is the hallmark feature of depression, implicated in its maintenance and recurrence. The treatment so eloquently presented in this book fills a significant gap for clinical practice. Written by the leading researcher in the field and based on an extensive corpus of basic and applied research, this book offers a comprehensive and thoroughly validated approach. The techniques offered will serve as an important resource for clinicians for many years to come."--Thorsten Barnhofer, PhD, Heisenberg Fellow, Free University of Berlin "Watkins has identified a critical but often overlooked factor in the treatment of mood disorders. Rumination is a central feature of depression, and is arguably the primary mediator of the maintenance of the disorder. A book that focuses on targeting rumination in treatment is sorely needed, and Watkins has delivered a masterful volume that is insightful, thorough, and accessible. This is an essential guide for anyone who treats depressed patients."--Rick E. Ingram, PhD, Professor and Director of Clinical Training, Department of Psychology, University of Kansas "Written by an internationally recognized expert, this book provides a highly accessible and engaging review of the phenomenology, etiology, assessment, and treatment of rumination. Practical, evidence-based treatment strategies are supplemented with rich clinical transcripts that illustrate the moment-by-moment intricacies of intervention. The techniques in this manual empower patients to go beyond the content of their thoughts to address the process and form of rumination. Clinicians at every level of expertise will benefit from this excellent volume."--David J. A. Dozois, PhD, Professor and Director, Clinical Psychology Graduate Program, Department of Psychology, University of Western Ontario, Canada-
