A Handbook for Parents of Children with Problem Behaviors Based on a Descriptive Study of Treatment Strategies
Abstract
dc:description.abstract<p>Parents of children with problem behaviors in special education classes are not often knowledgeable concerning treatment strategies used with their children. Eight treatment strategies commonly used with children with problem behaviors attending behavior disorders classes are described in this study for the purpose of developing a handbook for parents of children with problem behaviors. The eight strategies described are: contracts, peer teaching, token systems, modeling, cognitive modeling, assertive discipline, time out, and self-management. The resulting handbook describes these strategies', their rationales, advantages, disadvantages, implementations, and examples. These strategies are presented in chapter form. This handbook has been developed to explain to parents treatment strategies in use with children with problem behaviors, thereby enhancing the knowledge of parents and stimulating home-school cooperation.</p>
