Identifying, Assessing, and Treating Ptsd at School de Amanda B Nickerson

Identifying, Assessing, and Treating Ptsd at School

Autor Amanda B Nickerson, Melissa A Reeves, Stephen E Brock, Shane R Jimerson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 oct 2008

Autorii acestei lucrări, Amanda B Nickerson, Melissa A Reeves, Stephen E Brock și Shane R Jimerson, reprezintă un colectiv de elită în domeniul psihologiei școlare și al gestionării crizelor în educație. Expertiza lor academică și clinică fundamentează acest ghid metodologic, oferind o bază solidă pentru identificarea timpurie a traumelor la elevi. Subliniem faptul că, până la vârsta de 16 ani, un număr alarmant de tineri prezintă simptome ale Tulburării de Stres Posttraumatic (PTSD), ceea ce impune o pregătire specifică a personalului didactic și auxiliar. Reținem organizarea riguroasă a conținutului, care ghidează cititorul prin etapele esențiale ale intervenției. Volumul debutează cu analiza cauzelor și a prevalenței, continuând cu protocoale de screening și referire către specialiști. Un punct forte este secțiunea dedicată evaluării psihoeducaționale și diagnostice, care face trecerea către opțiunile de tratament aplicabile în școală. Această structură reflectă o progresie de la teorie la practica clinică imediată, fiind adaptată nevoilor psihologilor școlari. Identifying, Assessing, and Treating Ptsd at School acoperă o arie tematică similară cu Supporting and Educating Traumatized Students de Eric Rossen, dar cu o abordare mult mai axată pe protocoalele de diagnosticare formală și tratament clinic specific pentru PTSD. În timp ce alte lucrări, precum Cognitive and Behavioral Interventions in the Schools de Rosemary Flanagan, explorează un spectru larg de tulburări (ADHD, anxietate, depresie), volumul de față este o monografie specializată, oferind profunzime într-o singură direcție critică: trauma posttraumatică. Recomandăm acest titlu pentru rigoarea cu care definește impactul traumei asupra abilităților academice și socio-emoționale.

Descriere scurtă

By age 16, significant – one might even say “alarming” – numbers of students are demonstrating signs of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Students with PTSD are more likely to develop a range of problems, from delinquent behavior to eating disorders to substance abuse to dropping out. For the school-based professional, the ability to recognize these symptoms and warning signs is essential.
Emphasizing prevention as well as intervention, Identifying, Assessing, and Treating PTSD at School clearly defines PTSD, explains its adverse affects on children’s academic and social-emotional skills, and offers expert guidance on how to recognize student needs and provide appropriate services. This volume, designed as a practical, easy-to-use reference for school psychologists and other educational professionals: (1) Makes the case for why school psychologists and their colleagues need to be more prepared, willing, and able to identify and serve students with PTSD. (2) Identifies the causes, prevalence, and associated conditions of PTSD. (3) Provides a review of screening, referral, and diagnostic assessment processes. (4) Reviews appropriate treatments for students with PTSD.
Today’s youth live in an increasingly uncertain world, and school psychologists, counselors, social workers, and general and special education personnel will find Identifying, Assessing, and Treating PTSD at School an invaluable resource in their practices.
