Helping Schoolchildren Cope
with Anger
A Cognitive-Behavioral Intervention
Jim Larson and John E. Lochman
|
 |
This comprehensive guide presents the Anger
Coping Program, an
empirically supported group intervention for 8-12 year olds with
anger and aggression problems. Controlled clinical research has
demonstrated this program to reduce teacher- and parent-directed
aggression; improve on-task behavior in the classroom; and enhance
participants' verbal assertion and compromise skills, social
competence, and academic achievement. In one clearly written volume,
the authors provide the latest knowledge base on childhood
aggression, the cognitive-behavioral principles underlying their
approach, instructions for setting up and running the program, and a
session-by-session treatment manual. Included are detailed guidelines
for monitoring intervention outcomes and successfully duplicating the
program across multiple settings. Many helpful examples enhance the
practical utility of the book, as do reproducible teacher handouts,
child self-report forms, and parent letters in English and Spanish.
