Download or read book Examining the Relationship Between Day Treatment Participation and School Attendance in Truant Adolescents and Considering the Factors that Contribute to Truancy written by Jennifer S. Schulz and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the relationship of day treatment participation to school attendance of truant adolescents with particular attention given to the gender of each adolescent. A brief description of each adolescent before and after the study was given, revealing the school attendance tallies, a behavioral profile (including scores from the Mikan Anger Inventory and the Beck Depression Inventory), and gender. A comparison of truant adolescents before and after day treatment participation was made using school attendance records, behavioral observations (including anger inventory and depression inventory scores), and the gender of six truant adolescents from rural Northwestern Wisconsin. This study was undertaken to determine whether day treatment participation is related to school attendance and to explore how gender factors into truancy patterns and treatment approaches. My hypothesis was that a positive correlation exists between school attendance and day treatment participation. In this pilot study, it is doubted that statistical significance will be reached. As a result, case study data confirmed that day treatment participation aids in the reduction of problematic behaviors related to truancy. In addition, raw data and mean scores pertaining to unexcused absences revealed a decrease in the frequency of truant behavior. T- tests and ANOVA's were used in analyzing further results. As a note, statistical significance was slightly short of p .05 at p

Download or read book Advanced Abnormal Psychology written by Michel Hersen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 541 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although senior undergraduate psychology students and first year master's- and doctoral-level students frequently take courses in advanced abnormal psychology, it has been almost two decades since a book by this title has appeared. Professors teaching this course have had a wide variety of texts to select from that touch on various aspects of psychopathology, but none has been as comprehensive for the student as the present volume. Not only are basic concepts and models included, but there are specific sections dealing with childhood and adolescent disorders, adult and geriatric disorders, child treatment, and adult treatment. We believe the professor and advanced student alike will benefit from having all the requisite material under one cover. Our book contains 26 chapters presented in five parts, each part preceded by an editors' introduction. The chapters reflect updates in the classification of disorders (i. e. , DSM-IV). In Part I (Basic Concepts and Models), the chapters include diagnosis and classification, assessment strategies, research methods, the psychoanalytic model, the behavioral model, and the biological model. Parts II (Childhood and Adolescent Disorders) and III (Adult and Older Adult Disorders), bulk of the book. To ensure cross each containing seven chapters, represent the chapter consistency, each of these chapters on psychopathology follows an identi cal format, with the following basic sections: description of the disorder, epidem iology, clinical picture (with case description), course and prognosis, familial and genetic patterns, and diagnostic considerations.
