en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 feb 2021

Recomandăm acest manual practic, aflat la a doua ediție, ca pe o resursă esențială pentru specialiștii care activează în mediul școlar K-12. School-Based Behavioral Assessment, Second Edition oferă un cadru metodologic riguros pentru evaluarea socială, emoțională și comportamentală, fiind ancorat în sistemul de suport pe mai multe niveluri (MTSS). Autori precum Sandra M. Chafouleas și Austin H. Johnson au actualizat volumul pentru a reflecta evoluțiile din ultimul deceniu, punând un accent sporit pe screening și monitorizarea progresului.

Structura volumului ghidează cititorul de la formularea întrebărilor corecte în procesul de evaluare, până la utilizarea datelor existente și a observației directe sistematice. Capitolele dedicate evaluării directe a comportamentului și scalelor de rating oferă instrumente concrete pentru luarea deciziilor bazate pe date, atât la nivel de școală, cât și pentru grupuri mici sau cazuri individuale. Față de ediția anterioară, acest volum introduce un capitol extins de aplicații practice, unde studiile de caz demonstrează implementarea tehnicilor în situații reale.

Cititorii familiarizați cu Conducting Behavioral and Social-Emotional Assessments in MTSS de Nathaniel von der Embse vor aprecia în acest volum focalizarea specifică pe criteriile de defensibilitate și uzabilitate a fiecărei metode de evaluare. În timp ce alte lucrări se concentrează pe intervenții generale, lucrarea de față, parte din The Guilford Practical Intervention in the Schools Series, oferă un echilibru între fundamentarea teoretică și instrumentele gata de utilizat, inclusiv formulare reproductibile care acum sunt disponibile și în format digital pentru descărcare.

Este o resursă care transformă evaluarea dintr-o obligație birocratică într-un instrument activ de prevenție și intervenție timpurie.

Chapters describe when, why, and how to use extant data, systematic direct observation, direct behavior rating, and rating scales. In a large-size format for easy photocopying, the book includes reproducible forms and templates. Purchasers get access to a webpage where they can download and print the reproducible materials.

Recenzii

“This excellent second edition connects recent behavioral assessment research to school-based applications for implementation within MTSS frameworks. Chafouleas and her colleagues remain committed to a prevention-based approach, in which behavioral assessment gives priority to decreasing both the incidence of new academic, social, and behavioral difficulties and the prevalence and intensity of problem behaviors that already exist. School psychologists and counselors, special and general educators, and others who rely on data-based decision making will find this resource to be highly translatable and implementable in their professional roles.”--George Sugai, PhD, Neag School of Education (Emeritus), University of Connecticut

"Chafouleas and colleagues have done it again--they have pulled together a book that should be required reading for all educators who want to promote meaningful changes in student outcomes at the schoolwide, classroom, and individual levels. The first chapter alone is worth the price of the book: it helps readers understand the purposes of behavioral assessment, the data best suited to address different purposes, and the types of resources needed to follow through with data gathering and decision making. This book is like no other resource. The logical flow of the chapters, comprehensive coverage of different tools, and practical examples will leave readers with a deep understanding of the 'whys,' 'whats,' and 'how-tos' of school-based behavioral assessment."--Clayton Cook, PhD, Department of Educational Psychology, University of Minnesota

"I have reviewed and used a number of books on behavioral assessment, and have never encountered one that is better organized, higher in quality, or more readable than this one. This book has so many strengths that it’s a challenge to acknowledge them all. In addition to their expertise in behavioral assessment, it is clear that these authors know and understand school settings and operations from the ground up. They present cost-effective tools and strategies that teachers and other school staff can easily implement and show how assessment can support good decision making if used correctly. The book provides myriad illustrations of assessment techniques and informative case studies that greatly enhance the reader’s understanding of how to apply the material. We are fortunate to have our graduate students and future professionals exposed to information like this."--Hill M. Walker, PhD, Department of Special Education and Clinical Sciences (Emeritus), University of Oregon; Senior Scientist, Oregon Research Institute

"The role of the school psychologist is expanding, becoming increasingly collaborative with general and special education teachers and families within tiered systems. Situating this second edition within a tiered framework is an important innovation to help meet students’ academic, behavioral, and social needs at each level of prevention: Tier 1 for all, Tier 2 for some, and Tier 3 for a few."--Kathleen Lynne Lane, PhD, BCBA-D, Roy A. Roberts Distinguished Professor of Special Education and Associate Vice Chancellor for Research, University of Kansas-
