Description

The authors address the critical need for combating the growing problem of violence among our youth. This volume is based on theoretical knowledge and research about violent children and discusses the factors that affect the development of violent behavior. After a discussion of empirically based assessment and intervention methods, the authors present a specific intervention program (Teams - Games - Tournament Method) as an effective approach that incorporates parent, peer, school, and community involvement. This book is useful for school social workers, guidance counselors, and teachers, as well as child and adolescent psychologists.
