Abnormal Child Psychology (6th Edition) – eBook

Through an accurate and thoughtful balance of clinical-diagnostic, developmental, and experimental approaches to child and adolescent psychopathology, Eric Mash and David Wolfe’s Abnormal Child Psychology 6th edition (PDF) remains the most scholarly, authoritative, and comprehensive ebook in its market. This sixty edition has been organized and updated to reflect DSM-5 categories, as well as dimensional approaches to classification and evidence-based assessment and treatment. Accessible to a broad range of readers, the ebook traces the developmental course of each disorder. It also shows how child psychopathology involves psychological, biological, and sociocultural factors interacting with a child’s environment. Case examples, Case histories, and first-person accounts are at the heart of the textbook, illustrating the categorical and dimensional approaches used to describe disorders and bringing life to the theories discussed. The authors also consistently illustrate how troubled children behave in their natural settings: schools, homes, and communities.
