Progress in Behavior Modification: Volume 21 (Progress in Behavior Modification Series)

Since 1975, Progress in Behavior Modification has helped professionals and students keep abreast of important new work in behaviour modification. In Volume 21 (the first of the series to be published by SAGE), the editors continue their careful selection of contributions to the theory, research and application of behaviour modification. Volume 21 includes such topics as: behaviour therapy with the visually handicapped, competitive employment for the mentally retarded, and the application of self-control technology for mentally retarded people in the community. In addition, two chapters consider important health issues: the behavioural management of hypertension and the primary prevention of coronary heart disease. The volume also includes an assessment of assertion and a chapter on an interpersonally based, cognitive-behavioural psychotherapy (ICB) with a complete case illustration.Hersen, Michel is the author of 'Progress in Behavior Modification: Volume 21 (Progress in Behavior Modification Series)', published 1986 under ISBN 9780803928510 and ISBN 0803928513.
