Cognitive Behavioral Interventions for Children with Aggressive Behavior: Applying Coping Power in School and Clinical Settings

Cognitive Behavioral Interventions for Children with Aggressive Behavior: Applying Coping Power in School and Clinical Settings explores the theoretical development, empirical foundations, and real-world implementation of one of today’s most effective and outcomes-driven models for cognitive behavioral interventions in schools. Coping Power, which developed from Anger Coping, was created to support prevention and early intervention efforts for aggressive, high-risk children and adolescents by school-based mental health professionals.Offering a basis for Coping Power’s history, objectives, activities, and models, this book uses current implementation science models to explore the training, implementation, and dissemination of research inspired by the program.Further insights are offered on how Coping Power can be adapted across diverse community contexts and optimized with new methodological approaches.
