Behavioral Case Formulation and Intervention: A Functional Analytic Approach
John Wiley and Sons Ltd, Aug 2008, Pages: 333
A Functional Analytic Approach
This book provides a complete update on developments in functional analysis over the last ten years. Applying a behavioural approach to case formulation, this volume will be organized into three sections; Conceptual Foundations, Applications with Specific Problems, and Assessment and Case Formulation. It will include a chapter on treatment, and will provide examples from many different clinical problems. The book will appear in the Wiley Series in Clinical Psychology.
There is a long history of behavioral approaches to psychopathology. Recent work, however, has focused instead on cognitive, psychodynamic and integrative approaches. Behavioral Case Formulation and Intervention redresses this imbalance by exploring radical behaviorism and its approach to the conceptualization, case formulation and treatment of psychopathology. Peter Sturmey describes the conceptual foundations of functional approaches to case formulation and intervention, explains the technology and application of behavioral assessment and hypothesis-driven intervention, and identifies outstanding and conceptual and practical problems within this framework.
