Series: The Guilford Practical Intervention in the Schools Series

Children and adolescents with disruptive behavior disorders struggle both in and outside the classroom. This book gives school practitioners vital tools for supporting students' positive behavior as well as their academic and social success. Chapters review effective behavioral interventions at the whole-class, targeted, and individual levels; parent training programs; and strategies for building adaptive skills. Core evidence-based techniques are illustrated with vivid, concrete examples. Ways to integrate the strategies into a school's multi-tiered model of prevention and intervention are discussed. In a large-size format for easy photocopying, the book includes 14 reproducible forms. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible materials.

This book is in The Guilford Practical Intervention in the Schools Series, edited by Sandra M. Chafouleas.

Reviews for Interventions for Disruptive Behaviors: Reducing Problems and Building Skills

It is clear from reading this book that Fabiano truly understands what it is like to live with, teach, or treat a child with a disruptive behavior disorder. Based in research, the book is written in a down-to-earth way, with realistic suggestions for educators and clinicians. The broad focus on evidence-based techniques is important and unique. Although many effective packaged interventions for this population are available, they are all largely based on the same important behavioral principles. Fabiano cogently conveys those core principles so that educators and clinicians can apply them flexibly to a broad range of problems across multiple settings. --Joshua M. Langberg, PhD, Center for ADHD Research, Education, and Service, Department of Psychology, Virginia Commonwealth University
