Reviews

“Most people make up their minds based on very limited information. Support for this assertion can be found in myriad surveys, polls, and descriptions of public opinion. School psychology is a domain where strongly held yet non scientifically supported opinions are rampant. The unfortunate result is the risk of harmful child practices. This book identifies several examples of practices and/or perspectives that masquerade as factual and sets the record straight with relevant scientific findings. Thus it is an ideal companion for texts used by professors teaching classes to students majoring in child psychology in general and school psychology in particular.” Patrick Friman, PhD, ABPP Vice President of Behavioral Health, Boys Town; Professor of Pediatrics, University of Nebraska Medical Center, USA.
