Clinical and Educational Child Psychology “There is no shortage of books on developmental psychopathology, but what is unique about this one is the effort to bridge clinical and educational practice with school practice. It is very well conceptualized, and the ecological and transactional approach is very appropriate to the subject matter. In fact, it is the only framework capable of providing a full picture of children’s mental health problems. This book is highly relevant for psychologists working with children and families, as well as for teachers and special education professionals.” Isaac Prilleltensky, PhD, Dean, School of Education and Human Development, Professor of Educational and Psychological Studies, University of Miami Clinical and Educational Child Psychology: An Ecological-fransactional Approach to Understanding Child Problems and Interventions examines developmental patterns in children aged 3 to 18 and the challenges that influence their developmental trajectory. Adopting a transactional-ecological perspective, Linda Wilmshurst explores the reasons why some children exposed to a variety of stressors may become vulnerable to a host of clinical, educational, and mental health problems. Initial chapters explore theoretical models and developmental milestones from early childhood through adolescence. Coverage also includes a variety of contemporary issues in the psychopathology of children and adolescents, with discussion of neurodevelopmental and disruptive behavior disorders, anxiety and mood disorders, attention and learning disorders, later onset disorders such as substance abuse and eating disorders, and issues of maltreatment that can result in trauma disorders. Through an innovative presentation that combines clinical and educational psychological approaches, Clinical and Educational Child Psychology offers unique insights into our understanding of behavioral issues during the transition from childhood to adolescence.

Psychology as a Science. Child psychology is presented in a way that reflects its scientific underpinnings. A Contextualist Approach. In addition to discussing the effects of schools, families, and peers in separate chapters, the text considers such contextual factors for each relevant topic. This approach allows students to appreciate the forces that shape different aspects of development. Balanced Coverage of Theory and Research. The textbook offers a good balanced treatment of the theories and the research that have shaped developmental psychology. The consistent and balanced framing of issues and research in terms of the major theoretical positions in the field allow the reader to learn not only what was done, but why, and what the broader implications are for our understanding of development. Cultural Diversity. Vasta et al., has a strong emphasis on cultural diversity and the cultural context for development. This emphasis helps students appreciate that development occurs within a cultural context, and that this contextand also some aspects of developmentmay be different from what they are familiar with in their own culture. Strong Cognitive Coverage. Vasta et al., is widely regarded for its coverage of the cognitive aspects in child psychology. Chapter 9, Cognitive Development: The Sociocultural Approach provides further context on the social and cultural foundations of developmental processes. Readability. The clear and accessible writing style of Child Psychology enables the reader to appreciate and understand child psychology without sacrificing important information on the theories and research of the discipline. Strong Pedagogical Features. The pedagogy has been designed to compliment the writing style of the text and to assist in reader comprehension. Chapter opening vignettes, a running glossary, in-text summaries, end-of-chapter visual summaries and boxed material all assist in communicating and reinforcing the material

A major feature of human intelligence is that it allows us to contemplate mental life. Such an understanding is vital in enabling us to function effectively in social groups. This book examines the origins of this aspect of human intelligence. The five sections attempt firstly, to place human development within an evolutionary context, focusing on the possibility of innate components of understanding. The second aim of the book is to examine the roles of early perception, pretence and communication as precursor skills in the development of a grasp of mental states. Thirdly, attention is given to the possibility that children know a good deal more about the mind than is apparent from many studies designed to probe their abilities. Taken together, the chapters in this book mark a new focus within a 'theory of mind' movement, examining a group of skills in infancy and early childhood which culminate towards the end of the preschool period in a more mature understanding of one's and others' mental states. Drawing together researchers from diverse theoretical positions, the aim is to work towards a coherent and unified account of this fundamental human abiity. This book will be of central relevance to psychologists and those in related disciplines, particularly education and philosophy.
