Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Social Skills across the Life Span: Theory, Assessment, and Intervention provides coverage of the theory, assessment and intervention surrounding social skills. Divided into three sections, the book begins with the definition of social competence, developmental factors and relationship to adjustment. Other sections cover assessment and intervention across the lifespan and specific interventions for clinical populations. Social skills are critical to psychological adjustment and are necessary for attaining a variety of emotional and interpersonal goals. As social skill deficits and the resulting negative social interactions are associated with a wide variety of adjustment problems and psychological disorders, this book is a welcomed resource.
